Woo - I sold 2 more things on ebay today, that is 5 things sold this month. I have 3 more things active. That empties a large shopping bag from my living room.
I can't list anymore tonight, but maybe tomorrow - I'd love to clear out another bag before Christmas. This is all just the low-hanging fruit stuff. I need to clear it out so I can dig in and get some real clearing out going.
Oh, that reminds me -- I brought some stuff to the consignment store the other night, and she took two things, but suggested I bring the rest back after Black Friday. I don't know if they have a sale that day or just get caught up in people's frenzy of buying, but she said they would go through a lot of stock that day. Huh! But also, I should make an appointment for next weekend.
I have a couple of stacks of winter clothes that I should probably go through and get rid of at least half. I like too many of my clothes, and then there is the danger of cleaning them out when I feel like I should only wear sacks.
Pustulence and Pestilence.
Which, god help me, I'm hearing to the tune of Ebony and Ivory.
Go msbelle!
I have a metric shitload of eBay things active, and now I desperately want them all to sell RIGHT NOW because we saw the orthodontist this morning and Matilda absolutely no-doubt needs Work Done in the next couple of years. She's a teeny little noodle with eight grown-up teeth already in that are not only grown-up but big wide grown-up, and the rest that come in will likely be even bigger and wider. Poor little bean.
OTOH, she's weirdly excited about the prospect of getting braces. Which, I don't even. Where on earth does she get this?
I am in the hallway of D's school waiting for my turn at the parent-teacher conference. I think I'm the only one here who showed up without my kids. This is WAY too many five year-olds in one place at this time of night.
It is a week to Turkey Day and we have no plans. I know what I want to do but K-Bug is being a total waffle. If I felt better, I'd commit to all the cooking myself. I should be better by then but I'd like to have backup.
Maybe a cool character on a kids'show has braces> Friend in the neighborhood?
Trader Joes has a frozen turkey dinner for two (turkey and stuffing) 12.99. Well actually for four, but I'm assuming with tday gluttony for two. Don't know how good this will be I'm going to do this, make cranberry sauce and sweet potato and maybe buy a small pumpkin pie. TJs there is a good chance it will be decent.
So I just went to sit down on the bus, and my knee made a horrible popping noise and it felt like a muscle or tendon actually moved over or under my kneecap, and for about three minutes it was all I could do not to scream or throw up. Now it hurts less, and I am hoping to be able to walk to change buses, but both my knee and my ankle kill. WtTF was that and what should I do?
