Buy MY Junk PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have lost my mind again. You would think after having had yard sales in the past that would be more work than they were worth I would never do it again. Well every time I have one I always say, never again but here I am.
I work pulling stuff from the attic all day long yesterday and it looks like I haven't made a dent. That is why this is going to be the largest sale yet. Not to mention I have taken on a new mentality. If we don't just love it, don't keep it out to use it and it has no real value, get rid of it. It's true. I spend more time either looking for something I know I have but don't remember its hiding spot, or cleaning all the things I have. Face it, when your time comes to go home and meet the Lord I don't think the first thing he will say to you is, did you ever find that hammer you put under the sink? Or worse, did you know I saw all that dust that built up on your family photos, glad you kept your bible busy. Hopefully He will tell me well done, because without all the distractions of the stuff I will have more time to spend in His word.
We always want to accumulate stuff. Stuff to leave behind for our kids when we pass away. From personal experience I can tell you it is not going to be whether or not they left you anything, it will all be about the fact that they are gone. Nothing can take away memories
I was raised in a clutter free house. I have no idea if that may have led to the fact that I have enough pictures of my kids that if I decided to turn them into wallpaper you would never see the same picture twice. I also have knick knacks, let me just say here that these little things are dirt demons. I don't care what you dust them with in 5 minutes the dirt demons have taken over.
Life has just gotten way to busy to have to sweat the small stuff. I am working on a business blog, trying to market my Young Living oils and still run the house. They may find me laying in the floor with a broom in one hand, bottle of oil in the other and my EOPR guide just a few feet away.  I'm still going to give it my best.

BTW do you know anyone that could do a yard sale intervention. It could make a good reality series. Yard Sale Junkies. Remember that name, someone will use it.
Till next time...

Be Blessed.
Tammy
