Counterproductive but fun

d_a_r_aIn a counterproductive move I went garage saleing today. I am supposed to be getting rid of stuff and decluttering my life. It was an impulse. We all know by now that I'm impulsive. Anyway the find of the day was a sewing machine table for $5! Yay! It is even collapsible for easy portability. My sewing machine is just sitting on a desk right now which is less than ideal plus that desk will have to accommodate my computer in the future since the computer desk will be going with Rick. Yeah, I know it doesn't make a whole lot of sense for me to get the computer and him to take the computer desk, but the computer desk was a gift from his sister and it's huge and bulky and I don't really want it anyway.
I also found 3 pieces of PartyLite that match a piece I already have and I couldn't resist. Together they make a gorgeous set. I like pretty things - so sue me. So I spent $9 total on the PartyLite stuff and a few more dollars on a few random items that I needed. I also picked up a book I have been wanting to read and 50 cents is way cheaper than I would have paid if I had picked it up on Amazon used. I love garage sales. They make me happy. Sunshine, trees and flowers in bloom and cute, albeit whiney and naughty, kittens also make me happy.
I haven't seen Rick today at all. He was gone when I got up. He had an appointment with a realtor to look at places. There is a note on the message board that he's supposed to be having dinner with my brother and helping him trim trees tonight so I may not see him at all today if he doesn't come to gaming tonight.
