Terry and Elizabeth came up and they helped us get some of the house in order.
The first day we got the living room, dining room, bathroom and part of the kitchen organized and packed.
The next day we had planned on starting working on the house but we had such luck getting things organized we decided to tackle the basement! Man was that a tough job! We got started and we threw away and threw away and threw away! I think we threw away 9 bags of trash and those are just the ones that made it to the trash cans. We still have two left down there. We also put things in the corner for our garage sale. We had huge amounts of stuff to go into the garage sale pile. we got most of the basement cleaned up. It was getting late so we decided to do the rest later. It was all tools and things we needed for the house projects.
Then on Saturday we had a garage sale. We brought all the stuff out and set it all up. We didn't advertise or anything we only put up two signs int he three really good locations we have. But we managed to sell $72 worth of our junk! That was nice! Then we all went out to lunch and spent it all! We did have a huge lunch though, it was good! We went to Fred's and had two huge pizzas and oniopn rings and loaded fries, and then they had these brownie fudge sundaes that looked like the ones we always had at Cheddars when we were growing up. They were soooo good! the brownies were sooo moist! Saturday afternoon we painted the trim in the entryway. and then late at night we took Terry and Elizabeth to the drive in. We saw Narnia 2 and National Treasure 2. They were both good.
Sunday we went to church and saw all our old friends. We did a lot of talking. And then we came home, ate, and Then we got down to work. We were able to clean out our bedroom, and the little side room too. After that we only had one last big project left. We emptied the attic. It was sooo nice to clean out all the major rooms! I would never have been able to do it on my own, let alone get it done in a few days! It would have taken me weeeeeks to get it done!
So then Erics school messed up some of his schooling stuff so we might have to come home early to get it fixed.
Time for Caleb to take a nap.
