I'll Be Ready In Another Five Years...

Our barn sale is done and over with. Whew! It was fun but it was alot of work. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful weekend either. Although I did get quite a sunburn, especially my lips. I guess that's because I was flappin' my gums so much talkin' to all the people.

Folks from all over the country stopped by. We even had some wonderful folks from Canada stop in. I could have chatted with them all day. They have those cute Canadian accents. But I reckon they thought it was us who had the accents.

Then we had this one ol' timer who walked up to us and asked "You're having a barn sale? How much for the barn?", grinnin' from ear to ear. (A real knee slapper!) I bet he told that joke to every sale he stopped at changin' the word "barn" to "garage" or "yard", dependin' on where he was. :> )

Hubs is thrilled with all we sold because now we can turn that spare room which was filled to the ceilin' with boxes, into a library area to keep all his books. But I'm sure y'all can guess I have different plans for it.

If ya haven't had a garage sale for some time, its somethin' to consider. Not only will ya empty out some of the contents of your home; it brings this vast land of ours and folks a little closer and I like that. Besides, now I have more room in the ol' homestead to bring in more "treasures". But I don't want hubs to read this. Soooo....
