Snow Days And Yard Sales
Good morning.
Yes, its a snow day today. Now yesterday morning was nasty, it should have been a snow day, but wasn't. This morning it is sunny out there, but, no school. I don't understand the reasoning. Unless there is more snow in the forecast. But it sure doesn't look like it right now.
This freecycle thing is driving me crazy. Its such a great idea, but people are such nitwits. I've now had 3 people ask me to email them pictures of my TV stand and none of them have replied back saying they want it. I still have had no luck getting anything I am interested in. I would have been willing to drive all the way to Arthur for a box of pots and pans, but they were apparently taken already, well, pending pick up. Two people have simply not responded to my requests for the stuff they offered. I can't wait for yard/garage sale season. At least then its a simple process with no games. Unlike this freecycle business. And its the same idea, keeping good junk out of the landfills.
I can't wait for spring. We are really getting whollopped the last few weeks. Deep freeze cold and tons of snow. I am craving sunshine and warmth. I don't want to leave the house, because its so cold out. I'm slipping into a depression, sort of.
I fainted last night. Not sure what that was about. I have a feeling it was related to my PMS and whatever is going on with my womanly problems. Still haven't heard from the specialist with my test results.
I haven't talked to Big R since Christmastime. She hates me. Theres nothing I can do about that. I don't understand it. I don't know what she wants from me. I've heard through the family grapevine that she found another job and plans to move in the spring. I miss her.
Did I mention I can't wait for spring? I am determined to have my yard sale. Hubby doesn't seem very enthusiastic about the whole idea though. We've only had one before and it went very well. We have a lot more stuff now. I don't know what his problem with the whole idea is. He likes going to other peoples sales, so why wouldn't he like having our own? The one we had years ago was down in the city, we only had a fraction of the stuff we have now. We were living in a cheesy area and everything. But we did manage to sell the majority of the stuff and lots of people came. What we didn't sell we donated to the nearest thrift store. It was great. Oh well, if I have to do it without his help, so be it. I just wish the weather would mellow out so I could get out in the garage looking for things for the yard sale and things to throw away. Hopefully by this time next year the garage will be insulated, heated and have a door directly from the house. I have the spare bedroom full of yard sale stuff and the garage is such a mess, but I'm sure its full of yard sale stuff. Then there's the basement. I suppose I could start there. I plan on being ruthless, as difficult as that is, being such a packrat.
But its pretty sad when you can't even give stuff away via the freecycle site.
Have a peachy day.
