At this very moment...I am finally enjoying a relaxing evening! Although some folks seem to think it is ok to show up a DAY early for the big ole yard sale!

Hello Carole, Story, Rhyme, Scfir, and all.

HI!!!!

Much calmer today, so I didn't post a rant. (but I wrote it and saved it!)

Lord, you sound like ME!



Carole, If I were in Tn, I'd help you pack. But here is an interesting alternative to a yard sale. WWW.Craigslist.org. My friend and I have been cleaning out our basements by putting things on craigs list. A lady drove 75 miles to get an old creepy prom dress that BK was selling for $5.00. And you know the ivy that climbs all over everything (not kudzu, the english stuff.) We were pulling it off the trees and someone came by and offered to buy it. Evidentally it sells for 5.99 a bunch at the garden store. So BK put it on Craigs list for $1.99 a can. (big old coffee cans) and people were driving from Manassas and Hagerstown to buy it. You can also post your yardsale date, etc.
Sometimes I toss a pat of butter in the veggie soup and that seems to add the boost of flavor I miss when I eliminate the meat. But I am sooooooo tired of cooking for ungrateful..... anyway I'm gonna take the big old bread bowl. (you know, one that is big enough to mix up 3 or 4 loaves of bread) And I'm going to fill it with lettuce, spinach, beet tops, carrots, basil, tarragon, thyme, sweet pepper, julienned squash....you get the picture. mmmmmm salad.! If they want meat they can open a can of spam.

I checked Craigslist, but the closest one I found was for Nashville and that's about 3 1/2 hours away. If after the yard sale we still have stuff left over I'll consider it though. I have SO much vintage everything here! I know when I was really into collective vintage I would have made that drive.

I used to do the butter in the soup thing, but now i just do straight veggies. Just a little S&P and I am good to go.

We are overrun with kudzu and I hate it! It's all we can do to keep that stuff trimmed back. I think it has a mind of its own! We do have a little English ivy, but not enough to sell I think. But hey...I'm not going to be living here much longer. What do I care if someone buys it all!? (joking!)


Oh the jokes cracked me up. Heh Heh Heh!
Cool! Hubby just kinda looked at me with a cocked eyebrow when he read them.

Ok. Ya'll can blame Storygirl for this confession...I am completely smashed. 3 sheets, even! Hubby came home from out of town (WooHoo!!!!!) and invited one of his friends over (after we napped on the sofa). He asked his friend to pick up a big ole bottle of Crown Royal for me (hubby doesn't drink) on his way over and so the rest is history. I have the Crown and a bottle of Sprite in the freezer and Lord help me..I think I might just make a serious dent tonight!

"Make a serious dent?"
Is this more colorful sayings from the south, or am I just out of the loop?

~**~laughing~**~
Making a serious dent = digging deep into that bottle. It's almost half empty now!

In my defense, Pat, hubby's buddy, has had a couple himself. I'm working straight out of a double highball, myself! Woot!

I love your smileys!

I'll not dent my head. Hubby is really nice about looking after me when I get "all goofy".

JAlpha, your smileys crack me up!

Carole, thanks for the 'dent' clarification. So is your hubby going nuts yet trying to keep you and his friend from TPing the neighbors house and rapelling off the roof?

You saw that photo of hubby, right? Well, with his glasses off and all that, some people are a "wee bit" skeered of him. He answered the door when the last earlybirds arrived. I dunno if they'll be back tomorrow, even though he was very nice to them.

LOL!!!
My husband has the same affect on people. He's tall and broad, and his very light blue eyes really contrast his dark hair and skin, and his eyes are really deep set, so he just looks intimidating...but he's the biggest sweety in the world. Sometimes though, those 'mean' looks come in handy.

Ever wonder if they feel kinda bad about people being scared of them? Or do you think they secretly enjoy it?

Hubby says to tell you this: "I know how people look at me. I work hard to cultuivate this image. I'tw hard being as pretty as me"

Straight from the horse's mouth!

You girls are having fun I see. Just popped in to say Hi. Hubby is waiting for me to join him in watching the steelers beat up on the redskins.

My husband is watching the Patriots vs. the Green Bay Packers.

I'm trying to figure out what to do tonight. Not usually anything good on TV. I just finished reading a novel. I could be revising my young adult novel but my brain is kinda tired.

Yeah, take a break. You've had a long week as it is. Are you ready to put your YA out there? Or do you already have an agent.
