I'm the b****

Well, it's not spoken but it's probably thought. We had decided to put the kids playhouse in the garage sale and our neighbors wanted to buy it. I told Mike I saw the house new on sale for $130 so I was thinking of asking $70-$75 for it but was going to research it. So he comes in the house saying they were buying the house and he told them $50. Now I'm pissed because I'm not working and $20 is something I could use. So we are fighting about it when I turn around and the neighbor is standing at the front door (yes we had the front door open so the screen door was closed) as he had come over to pay us for it. So now I feel like an A**!. He did give us $70 for the house and I did research it on Ebay (to make sure I didn't ask too much) and saw they sold on Ebay for $75-$80 so it all worked out except for the me being a b**** part.

As I'm throwing all the things that can go in the garage.... I'm wondering how I'm going to price all this stuff. I know I'd get more money on Ebay but I just don't want to take the time (and the risk of getting ripped off) to list everything.

Not much of a Holiday weekend for us. We cleaned the house yesterday and I was able to catch up on a few things. I did try out sewing with the Serger my mom gave me. I need some more practice but it is pretty cool. I did a rolled hem and made Mia some long shorts out of a pair of gauchos she had put holes in after wearing them for 20 minutes.

This also starts the first week of no more school for us. I think I will need to use my babysitter exchange a lot to keep my sanity.
