Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have made devilled eggs, easter eggs, and a non-Key lime pie for tomorrow. I think that's it! Although I may go over to Target to see if any of the possibles I saw on the website would be good to wear tomorrow?

I have to make a batch of congo bars for a tailgate party tomorrow, and vacuum. Also clip dog nails, which is always amusing.

Estate sale is OVER. They cleared over $500 and got rid of a few biggish pieces, but not the biggest ones and not nearly half of what was there. We packed up 3 smallish boxes of cheapy stuff and took to thrift stores today, but she is going to have to make decisions about a lot of the other stuff.

I ended up spending a chunk of the afternoon scanning the rest of my great-grandmother's 1958 diary, and amending my 2016 taxes. Wild times around here.

msbelle, $500 isn't bad? But what decisions can be made even--like, donate vs try to sell again sometime/where?

Apparently my mom has one of those like 13" TVs with a built in VCR and she is insisting my sister can't get rid of it....for the yoga tapes that she has never unwrapped?? OMG. The movers come Tuesday and my sister was like "I can't do this holy god"

Oh god. Both of those are why I keep telling my mother not to worry about what's in the attic, because after she dies I'm hiring movers and a dumpster. She can never move.

Over the course of the day, I bought three shirts to wear tomorrow, and I may not wear any of them! Because they are all short-sleeved and it's supposed to be cooler tomorrow. We shall see. I'd keep all of them anyway, though. Choir dress code is just solid color on top, black on bottom.

Decide to:

donate
keep trying to sell on apps
contact dealers to try and sell and/or sell on consignment

meara - I feel for your sister. Sometimes you just have to let the person keep the ridiculous thing and sometimes you just have to chunk it when they are not around sometime and deal with the consequences.

Now that I've moved ten miles north of where I was, I'm in range of delivered Indian food. Chicken korma and naan for dinner in my own home. So yum.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I was behind a car with the license plate POO * EOR today and that was awesome.

I'm so glad I have nothing to do tomorrow but mow the lawn. And if I don't mow the lawn it's not the end of the world, I can do it Monday.

Made $40 bellydancing tonight. Crazy.

Food delivery is awesome. Also making money on belly dancing is awesome!

Jesse, we keep telling mom we will just roll a dumpster up. We kind of did last summer—you can get these like, ikea-bag type things that are dumpster size and then you call to get them picked up. But yeah, 35 years in a four bedroom house...and my parents are packrats...

Also I went out dancing and got a little drunk and was convinced after pizza to dance at a second place and now I'm in a lot of pain owwww. Time for an ice pack on my ankle. And painkiller. But fun times.
