Welcome back! Have you Joined The Club?
You know how these things happen at garage sales right? I was a Girl Scout Troop Leader for each one of my older daughters from Daisy through Teens. Garage Sales were great Fundraisers that made their way into our schedule ever year. As I cleaned out my house for odds and ends each year I would pick up my “What To Expect When Your Expecting” books…I had them all…and put them in the donation box. Before that donation box could make it’s way out into our little Marketplace I would snatch back up those books and put them back on my shelf…just in case. Then came that day. The day I finally let those books go. I put them in the box. I priced them. Then I laid them out on the table for all to see. After all, I was going to be 40. That was the deal I had made with Jack. Games over at 40. We had 3 amazing girls and that would do us fine! I turned around and they were gone! All of them! The whole series! Gone. It was final. In my mind, once those books were gone I wasn’t going to need them. Ha, ha, ha. That was May. By June, just before my 40th birthday I found out my Baby Beans was coming. As soon as I go and get rid of those darn books is when I needed them most! It’s always the way it happens. Sure enough, the minute I let go of those books that I had lived by right through Jackaree’s First Years I need them once again! The moral of the story is: Be careful what you sell at your Garage Sale…you may end up pregnant!
