Game Called Because of Rain.....Damn....or is it Hooray

I have only enough strength to utter a few grunts and monosyllables....... the big Yard Sale Project has had to be put off a weekbecause of rain.  (Yes, it does occasionally rain in California.....especially on the weekend of the big yard sale)   One half of me is rolling on the floor thanking every Deity ever prayed to  by man.   The other half is kicking the furniture in frustration.....not that there is really enough room to kick any furniture right now  because of the profusion of cardboard boxes full of goodies taking up every inch of floor space.

However, the bright side is that now that I have gotten the hang of this Make Way for Empty Space thing I am finding more and more stuff I think I can bear to part with and the extra week should help me organize a bit. (Ha).

Whatever, do not look forward to the promised tell-all blog for another week. 

Oy.......but I just realized that now I have to live thru another week of this agonizing waiting........better start an office pool on what day and hour Lois will deconstruct and sprinkle particles of herself over North Hollywood and adjacent communities.  Sigh.  Dammit,it IS  always something........

  2. Lo, Why not consider selling your stuff online ala eBay? You may be pleasantly surprised how much you will make. Try taking a few simple pieces for a spin on the internet and see what happens. Who can argue with more money (unless you're occupying something)?

  3. Well, poop!I told Beth about your sale, and we both hoped it was going gung-ho! They say there's a reason for evrything, dear. Maybe next week will be a better one for a yard sale then this weekend would have been. I hope so! Hugs..

  6. I have done major, I mean major rubbish clearouts several times in my life, usually enforced due to changes in my life or location. Given that I can still get through the front door, and into most of the rooms, my attitude tends to be just leave it there. And as I think you said before, it's all too easy to bin something you didn't realise you treasured until it's too late.

  7. "Deconstruct" I never understood the literary criticism part but clearing space in our jam packed house works for me. Now if I could on convince the Mrs ( a retired Enligh teacher) :)

  8. Sorry the sale was postponed, Lo. I hate that--when I get finally resolved to do something--and the damn plans get changed.

    Love you so.
