Here's a new meme for you:

For all intents and purposes, I am using What the "heck" as my blog is family friendly and I know some people don't like swearing in blogs.

So here we go....

I swear it has rained every day the past two weeks EXCEPT when I have something to do.....

Remember how I tried to have a lawn (or rummage :-) sale a few weeks ago?

That didn't go over well.

And it has rained at least once a day since EXCEPT as I mentioned earlier....when I want to do something like have a sale or paint the laundry room.

What the heck?

I went to get paint for my laundry room. I decided to go with the same color as the living room. I had about 1/4 - 1/2 of a can left. We went to the store to get another gallon. We went to the same place where I had purchased this paint a year ago.


I brought all the paint numbers off of the top of the can so they just had to add ingredients, mix it up and presto- chango- a can of peachy-colored paint- RIGHT?

WRONG!

They no longer use that number of base paint, so they need to see a sample.

The gentleman asked if I had the paint stick I had used to stir it.

What the heck?

I WANTED to say, "Yeah, right in my back pocket."

But instead I went back with the stick the next day......


Do you work at home?

I recently had someone make a statement to the fact that I work at home so I have all the time in the world, where as THEY work outside the home, so they have no time....

What the heck?

You can read what I have to say about that HERE!

I cannot believe I need a haircut already!

I mean I just had it cut a week or so ago...

Or was that a month or so ago?

If I don't watch out, I'll end up HERE

Finally, I am discovering so many new meme's to put on my website, it's hard to decide which one's to do! There's just not enough time to participate in all of them!

What the heck?

The weather really put a kabosh on my lawn sale. I had put a few things out Friday night hoping to get a start on things. I asked Ron to throw a tarp over the stuff in case it rains.

The problem? I forgot to double check and make sure he had everything covered well! It did in fact rain, and the tarp he threw over had some holes, and well...

You guessed it!

Some of the puzzles and pictures got wet and are no longer fit to be sold!

Men!

Yesterday morning started out dark and gloomy. It was threatening to rain again....

It didn't.

So I set everything else up, making sure I had a few tarps handy. They were all old and holey, but if figured I could double them up, and stuff SHOULD be ok- I hoped.

Twice it rained- when you would least suspect it- when it was sunny out!

Twice I jumped up, threw everything under tables and covered them with tarps.

Twice the rain stopped as soon as I had everything put away....

Twice I put everything back out and sat down to read and wait....

...and wait....

Had one customer- no sale!

Anyway, the third time it started sprinkling, we covered everything and called it a day.

Never rained again during the day....the rain started again last night.

Now it's pouring out! I sure hope everything stayed dry  :-(

Time for a little fun!

Here is a meme I found but haven't tried yet.

That's it for today kids....the rain is letting up, so I'm headed out!

I really have to call my Internet Service Provider! This is getting ridiculous- I was only able to get on the computer for about an hour yesterday. When you work from home, this can be a real issue.

So yesterday in my eyes wasn't Friday, because I couldn't do any of my Friday stuff, like:

So I declare today FRIDAY, ok?

Friday Fragments

Been getting ready to have a lawn sale today- my house is a wreck!

Did you ever wonder WHY you saved 1/2 of your junk?

I call it junk and think no one will buy the stuff...until I remember I once bought it, why won't someone else.....

One man's junk is another man's treasure!

When looking for stuff to sell, I ran into a box of Golden Childs stuff from Kiddie-garten...great artwork :-) and some pictures that the teacher took.

I have to wonder- how can a kid not really change in all those years?

All I know is, I have some really embarrassing  cool stuff to hang around the house for his graduation party!

Little Man was here for the past 4-5 days. I don't understand how someone so cute can be such a brat (I say that lovingly!).



If you tell him NO- the world has come to an end!

That's what happens when a kid is being raised by two parents living apart (that can't communicate).

We may have a trailer!
It's smaller and older than I would like :-) but you have to start somewhere! Now if it doesn't sell before I get ahold of the guy....one plus is I know the owner.

Did I mention that I got rid of my last 3 goats?

I'm ready to go!

Now I must go and real quick check emailand read a blog or two before my Internet dies again...

Then it's out to the front yard to make a little moola!

Later!
