So Dave and I picked the hottest days of the year so far to hold our yard sale. Saturday was okay. We had about 30 people stop by and maybe about 5 folks just drove past without stopping. And we made some decent sales. After mass on Sunday, we got breakfast and then opened the yard sale again. It was not only hotter than Saturday, but we only had maybe 7 people stop by the whole time. I was getting pretty miserable by 2:00 so we closed up shop at 3:00. What we didn’t sell we are taking to the Salvation Army.
What was nicest about the yard sale was that we got to meet several of our neighbors. There are several very young people with young children living nearby. They were all very nice.
In gardening news though, my tomato plants are looking MUCH better in the heat. We bought a spray fertilizer also which Dave applied over the weekend, which must have done some good. The bean plants have done amazingly over the last four days. They went from barely visible green shoots just under the soil to plants 5 inches tall! The heat might wilt me, but it does wonders on a garden.
Today, as yesterday, I am staying inside and doing stuff around the house. We’ve got two window air conditioners running which make the house fabulously cool. Speaking of doing stuff around the house, I should probably get myself busy! Have a great day!
