Rubber Boots Required...

By now I am sure that all of you are sick of hearing me go on about the rain and mud...so I will try not to complain anymore. I will just leave you with the warning -- if you come out to the sale tomorrow or Saturday, please come prepared and wear your rain boots!! I should have planned ahead a little better...maybe I could have made this into a contest -- Most Beautiful Boots, Ugliest Boots, etc...Or just come barefoot ~ Please wear clothes...even if you do look as fabulous as this young lady...

Sorry, no pets allowed!

Just come and have fun!!

And, be thankful that it isn't THIS bad... (this is June of last year!)

Relaxing...

that is what I have been doing this week! After working late every night last week to get ready for my sales I find myself hardly even thinking about heading to the basement to work...so, there won't be tons of new items since last weekend, but there is STILL tons of stuff crammed into that little shed of mine!

And...as I am writing this I am watching the rain - lots and lots of rain!! So, once again my yard and back driveway will be flooded and I will have to ask again that customers park on the road....so sorry! At least it looks like it will be warmer this Friday and Saturday...

See you then!

OPEN THIS FRIDAY NIGHT, TOO!!!!!

that's right -- I will be open Friday night from 5:00-8:00 pm in addition to being open Saturday from 8:00-noon!! Hopefully, the weather will agree with us on one of these days!

See you then!

5 customers + 1 purchase = an even bigger & better sale next saturday!

That's right ~ it is 11:15 and so far the sale has been pretty slow. That's ok, though, because it means the shed is already set and ready to go...AND I can create even more recycled treasures for next saturday!!!

Hopefully, it will not rain as much and be a little warmer next saturday!

Again - hope to see you then! Tell all your friends!

Still Open....

YES, I will be open tomorrow. 

There is a lot of water in the front yard AND it is extremely muddy....why? Some of you have asked me why we have such a muddy yard. The very front part of our yard runs right a long the road, so it is actually the road ditch. We also use this part of the yard as the driveway into one our fields.  AND, last fall we were lucky enough to get rural water which required tons of digging, most of which we have not yet seeded with grass.

So, that's the story...but, honestly, I don't care and I am not going to get too upset about it. Every time it rains too much I remind myself of New Orleans, Cedar Rapids, and now, Nashville. I have NOTHING to complain about. I have a house that is not under ten feet of water, so things are OK.

Hope to see many of you on Saturday...

I almost forgot -- my address!! I have been so caught up in everything that I had not posted my address on here yet...

2206 200th St

Marengo

- - only about a mile north of the Marengo/North English exit

- - it is right on the corner of 200th and the highway, you can't miss it!

Clarification....

I have gotten some emails from customers that are disappointed that they cannot come this Saturday.....let me clarify: I will ALSO be open the 15th, 22nd, and the 29th!

I might even throw a Friday night sale in there somewhere, too!!!!

Saturday Plans...

It has only been a few hours since my last post but in that short time while I was setting up in the shed I decided that I am having this sale -- NO MATTER WHAT!! However, in order to have it I will need to let all of you know some things in regards to the possibility of the river running through my front yard...

...you may have to park on the road (that would make it seem like a real flea market!). I will have signs posted for parking locations. Normally, I would let you park in our driveway but I have a feeling that it will be just as muddy as the front yard and the gravel situation is NOT plentiful right now (thanks to the lovely winter we had).

...please wear shoes that are NOT your favorite -- old sneakers, rain boots, etc. because the grass will more than likely be wet, too.

...sorry for the inconveniences, but I really want to have this sale and want to have as many of you there as possible!

I took a few pictures tonight as I was setting up...still lots more to set up tomorrow and Friday!

HOPE TO SEE YOU SATURDAY!!!
