It's Monday and it's snowing. Crazy schitzofrentic Colorado weather. Friday was simply lovely and warm - perfect for the neighborhood garage sale. Then Saturday (just in time for our school fundraiser golf tournament), this nasty cold sleet moved in. Accompanied by icy winds. And more sleet. Mike and his friends, who were participating in the golf tournament, only made it through seven holes before they called it quits. Yesterday was sunny again - shorts & sandals weather. Then this morning, we wake up to 4 inches of snow. Apparently Mother Nature is experiencing some significant mood swings. And I thought I was bad.
So anyway, for those that asked, the garage sale was great. Lots of people out looking for bargains. My scrapbook stuff wasn't selling too well until one lady customer called all her friends to let them know about my stash. About 10 minutes later, they all showed up at once and in a flurry of grabbing and squealing MINE! MINE! they cleaned me out. They were concerned that I was quitting scrapbooking (I did have a crapload of stuff to sell!) but I assured them that, no, I was merely paring down and making room for new stuff. I sold pretty much everything by early afternoon on Friday. There were a few things I thought might still sell, so I set everything back up on Saturday morning, but the crappy weather kept people indoors. After about an hour of freezing my hiney off, I called it quits and just donated the remaining items to charity. I figured a few lost sales were better than coming down with pneumonia, in the long run. :)
Hope you had a great weekend and are enjoying a warmer Monday than me! I'll leave with you a few pages I did with an old Studio Calico kit, Fountain Square:
