Garage sale results

We got set up by 7:15 or so yesterday morning and we were pretty much DONE by 9:30, although I did have a last minute sale of some bars of scented soap!  I only made $35.00 the entire time.  It was pretty disappointing and people haggled over every purchase!  I managed to sell a couple of jackets, some childrens' books, and a large wooden cutout of a horse ($5.00)...sigh...most items went for $0.50 and then they grumbled.  I sold two jackets for $2.00 each...The horse was the most expensive items I sold all morning.

By 9:30, it was HOT.  And, I mean HOTTTTTTTTT!!!  It was 105 here yesterday and by 10:30, I was on the verge of heat exhaustion.  I went inside, drank two glasses of water, and passed out on our daughter's couch for an hour.  I was D.O.N.E.

Maybe their next one, in March, will be cooler?  HOPEFULLY!   :-)  I did manage to run over to Whole Foods and buy chicken salad and a superfoods salad for lunch and hubby ran over there to buy chicken kabobs for dinner!   ;-)

I haven't seen the hawk in our yard, but while talking to a neighbor 2 houses down, he mentioned that he stops in his back yard almost daily.  And, he has 3 birdbaths to choose from, not just my homemade one!  WELL!  Hmmpppffff!  He IS in the neighborhood because I heard him yesterday morning and I saw him one morning up on our telephone pole in the back yard.  But, by the time I grabbed my camera, he was gone.
