the garage sale was a success! it was also a lot of hard work. i spent all evening thursday cleaning out the garage, spiders and all...and then friday organizing and marking/pricing items...and then waking up at 6:45 to start the day of madness! well, actually it wasn't really a day of madness, really. it rained all day and was hot and sticky, i got many a mosquito bite, and spent a lot of time folding and reorganizing after each person left. i could totally manage a retail store, i am sure of it! but, at the end of the day (2:00pm) i ended up with only a large kitchen table, coffee table and ugly end table and 2 trash bags of clothes and misc. items!! and i made $175 bucks!! my first garage sale...so proud, so proud. :)
mostly i am just so glad to get rid of so much crap! seriously people, who needs a shirt they haven't worn in 5 years. that's right folks...i have (had) clothes i haven't (hadn't) worn in FIVE years. good riddance!!!! and my garage is clean and almost spider free, thank goodness. it was really driving me crazy.
so now the question is, what am i going to do with the money? well, i don't know yet. i really want a new couch...so i may start a little couch + chair and a half fund, to be bought in the near future. we'll see...but it's definitely going into some savings fund. yay!
other news: craig goes tomorrow for an interview with eastside. i am praying that everything goes smoothly - this is very exciting!

Hey Leah!
It was so great to hear from you. I often wonder what you and Amy are up to. Do you stay in touch with her? Caleb is precious. Kids are so fun. I am so glad that I can check your blog and peek into your lives now.
