Several times I've come up with what I thought were new ideas, only to discover someone else already had (and publicized) the ideas. For example, I thought I invented the Paleo Diet. But it had already existed for decades.
Now I've come up with something I think might actually be original.
Next weekend we're going to have a sale (to get rid of some junk) at our house. It's not really an estate sale, but it will be more than a yard sale or garage sale. I suggested we call it a "Hoarder's Sale." I won't say who the hoarder is (but it's not me).
So, that's my contribution to the world....hoarder's sale. Well, that and my wonderful kids, of course. :)
Happy weekend folks--and a happy 3 day weekend to my US friends!
I hope you have an enjoyable long weekend, Rick! Good luck with your hoarder's sale next weekend. My hint for success would be to have an agreement worked out before the sale that every single item that doesn't sell goes to a local thrift store or the garbage dump. That way you are guaranteed to get rid of everything.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kristie! That's a good suggestion about the agreement. It reminds me I have a story about why we stopped having yard sales a few years ago. Hope you have a wonderful weekend.
DeleteHehe. So how was the sale? Did other hoarders come by?
ReplyDeleteThe sale is this coming weekend. We did most of the sorting over the holiday. So far we have ten boxes of junk to sell. It will all go, one way or another. :)
DeleteI am keeping my fingers super crossed that this sale is a BIG success and you get rid of lots of stuff
ReplyDeleteThanks Rooth. Everything must go! :)
DeleteI'm debating whether or not to try to sell our non-flat screen tv. I have to get rid of it soon--before I'm too old to lift the monster. lol
