Angel and I got up early today (7am) and headed out for the Saturday garage sales to be found. As it was a Saturday, they were easily found. Over the years, the Sunday sales have fallen to the wayside which is why we had not had any luck last week. There were a few listed on Craig’s List and we did some sign surfing as well, randomly turning down streets when we spotted a sign.
I picked up a couple books from one sale, a couple ‘craft boxes’ that I can paint and put little things in (jewelry, spare change, etc.) and she got a small canvas stand for crafts or to put on the counter to hold fruits and/or vegetables. Then we found this adorable little bar-height table with a glass top and four chairs. Perfect for outside! We raced home to get Robby, show him the picture, and get permission (and the Jeep). $40 later, it is sitting in the living room while we wait for monsoon season to end. The set wouldn’t last outside in the raging winds that happen.
It wasn’t a bad day. I haven’t gone in so long that I almost felt rusty!
We got home and I realized quickly that the three hours of bad sleep I had gotten were not going to sustain me. As my body grew fatigued even more quickly, I started to feel a migraine coming on. I slid into bed and passed out. When I woke up, the migraine was still threatening to rear its ugly little head and I was feeling nauseated. So I stayed in bed and read for a little bit before falling asleep for another 30 minutes or so. I definitely feel better. Headache is gone at least.
Off to the river, again, tomorrow! I will not be drinking this time! No. Really. Not happening.
If you haven’t entered already, the contest is still going on!
