Today was the first day of the garage sale.

Slow.

We sold some stuff, but not anywhere near what I had hoped to.

Sister was going to help me, but was very ill this morning. So I had to run around like a loon and try to get things arranged. And Husband had brought up EVERYTHING from the basement and piled it in the aisles. Let me tell you, I am exhausted. I moved it all out onto the driveway by myself and unpacked another twenty boxes and put up a tent and...etc.

Bad luck #1: I reposted the Craigslist ad yesterday, and then went to repost it this morning. (I am aggravated that, in order to repost, you must delete and then post anew.) Only, I forgot that it has a captcha thing, and I was super crazed so I just hit post and ran away. So. My ad was not visible this morning, as it was deleted, and the new ad was waiting to be verified. Sigh.

Bad luck #2: All eight of our signs were "uprooted," according to Husband. I don't know how and/or who. I *do* know that we had two signs in front of our yard, and one of them was down at about one because the neighbor girl came and told me. Not certain what happened.

All in all? I am wishing I'd just donated it all in one fell swoop.

I hope tomorrow is better.

At least I see [livejournal.com profile] gypsyjolie and my BIL tomorrow morning. One lovely ray of light in the otherwise stress-filled weekend.

Yeah, Husband said he pounded them in really hard, but I have a feeling they just couldn't take the stress.
