Recovering From My Yard Sale

My ‘crafty’ yard sale was great – I made over $900!  Surprisingly, the biggest sellers (quantity-wise, not price-wise) were my card samples.  I started with 6 plastic boxes of cards – probably about 500 cards in all – and sold every single one of them!  Between the cards, retired stamp sets and the other items I sold, I finally have a little more space in my craft room again. 

But the yard sale was a TON of work and both days were EXTREMELY hot and VERY humid.  It took me a whole day just to recover from near heat exhaustion from hauling things out to the yard and back and sitting out in the sun all day.

Next I have to get ready for a workshop scheduled for this Wednesday.  And it’s sure going to be an interesting week with TWO goldendoodle puppies running around.  We’re watching Bella while Andrew is at the shore with his dad and step-mom.  And so far, the dogs are running around like crazy, playing with each other like two bulls in a china shop.  It’s so cute to watch, though – and I’m sure as the week goes on, they’ll get used to each other and calm down – at least a little bit, anyway.

Oh – and I found out this week that I’m going to be a make-and-take helper at the Stampin’ Up! Regional Seminar in Philadelphia in September!  I’m excited about that – you know how I love to be involved in things (being a control-freak and all).
