Garage sale

This weekend was an exhausting one. I came back home to clean out my over sized and over stuffed storage unit. After doing so I had an eventful little garage sale. I sold things I didn't think I'd ever part with and things I had no idea how I acquired. My Aunt had the GS with me, as we all know its a two woman job to man these things. Saturday  we were up and out the door by 630am! Now for some thins might be a normal hour to be up an out but we are not two of those people. That being said...... We were clearly feeling ambitious. 

Saturday was a major hit. People were flowing in almost non stop! It was quite the day. Once the day came to an end we were super thrilled with the success we had. As Sunday morning rolled around we were feeling even more ambitious as the last so up and out by 615! We set up the table put all our stuff out and waited. And waited and waited. By  9am we had only about 3 customers. 10 rolls around and Still we hear crickets so by 10:30 we pulled up the signs and closed up shop. We were defiantly disappointed about the lack of financial gain but we certainly had a fun time. My two nieces who are both under the age of 9, assisted us. They were quite the busy bees as they tried on the high heels I was selling and danced the hookah hoop. Boy are kids something. 

It was a hot day as it tends to be in Fort Lauderdale so into the pool we all went diving and swimming galore. We did canon balls and pencil dives too, we played pool games like when I was a kid. Same pool too. Pretty neat the amount of history that one pool has. 

What a great weekend!
