Clean Garage
The last of my Garage Clutter has been picked up. Hopefully by someone whom can use it. The only thing that I sold at my Garage Sale that I'm feeling somewhat regretful about would be Tyler's old Ralph Lauren Polo Bear Bedding set. He won't miss it. But I've always been a little partial to the set. I was just in the mind set of cleaning out my Garage. I'm so tired of having extra stuff. There's no point in having things that aren't being utilized in some way or another.
So now its already Sunday afternoon. We went out for lunch today, we went to Red Lobster in a small nearby town. The food was great, I ordered the Shrimp Scampi and My husband ordered Shrimp Linguine. There were only two servers working, service was a little slow, for the most part, we had a great experience. We've been home for some time now, I've been continuously hoping that my daughter Adicyn would take a nap, lol. I haven't been able to accomplish as much as I'd hoped for today. I did get my SUV all clean and vacuumed. I love our Craftsman Wall Vac. Its so nice to vacuum our vehicles without ever leaving the comfort of our home. I also detailed the inside. I need to buy some leather cleaner for the interior. Now it looks great inside and out!
I've also been looking at BMW's today, now the only question is..do I buy a 3 series or a 5 series, and do I want a vert? I know that I want it to be Black on Black or possibly Silver Exterior with Black interior. I've been leaning more towards and automatic instead of a manual transmission too. We already have two Mustang's, they are both manual GT's. I'm really hoping for something that's a little more relaxing to drive. I hope to have it in my driveway within the next two weeks. Our Auto insurance is also up for renewal, so I need to check on rates to add the new car. We have full coverage on all three vehicles now and I want to keep it that way. We currently use Geico but I will be checking out other rates for the renewal, but there's no point in doing so, until I get the new car.
Ahhh, so I'm relaxing on my sofa right now, just Adicyn and Mommy. We are watching one of my favorite TV shows -House Hunters International. This woman is searching for a Summer home in Belize, A Beach Home! I can't wait until we are financially ready to purchase a Beach Home on the water. Soon, I hope.

I just love a productive day!
Today was quite productive indeed! I awoke early, started to get my Garage Sale in order at 5:00 A.M. -I finished up my Garage Sale at 11:00 A.M., I had a few stragglers at the end, and I was so ready to finish, I told them all, "come on up, anything you want, just take it, It's FREE!" These people could not believe their ears. I went inside to get each person a large trash bag and handed them out. They had a lot of fun shopping at a Free Garage Sale. Some of them said to us, "you just don't know what a blessing that you have been to us".
I like to sell things this is true...but even better, I love to just give things away, but only to people whom are appreciative. I have always been a giver. Anyone who knows me can vouch for this. Even as a young child, if I had something and someone else said they liked it or wanted it, I would just give it to them. My son Trey gets this from me. Trey is a young child with a big heart.
Okay, so I said today was productive. I didn't just mean because of the garage sale, even though I made over $200.00 today. Nice, lol. After we wrapped everything up, Chris wanted to drive out to Butler. Yes, to look at a gun. Of course he ended up purchasing a new gun. I think that he said it's a Colt 1911, something like that. I stayed in the car. I don't care too much for chasing a two year old around a Fire Arms store. He's so excited to have another new gun.
After, we drove to Macon to eat lunch at Texas Cattle Company. The food is great, and I used to love to eat there whenever they had a Restaurant in our town. I went on a lot of "First Dates" there. lol, that's been a long time ago.
As we were leaving the restaurant, my husband says to me, "It's your turn, where would you like to go?" I didn't have to think twice.."River Crossing!" We finally made it there and omg, there was like no where to even park, we ended up parking behind Dilliard's, it's okay , we could use the exercise. We stopped in a few of our favorite stores, First, the Toy store for Adicyn, then Gymboree and Crazy 8, lol yes, of course -for Adicyn, then finally my turn. For me, it was EXPRESS and The Loft. Two of my favorite's. I didn't find anything at EXPRESS that I just had to have, but yes, oh yes. I found a really sexy skirt and some much needed -SOCKS! I don't know where my socks disappear to. I only wear socks to work at least. If I am off, then it's sandals, cute dressy shoes or flip-flops for me. Yes, even during the Winter months.

After minimal shopping for myself, on the way to the car, Chris insisted that we take Adicyn, (our two year old daughter) to Build A Bear Workshop. She picked out a Bear and brought him to life. They are so cute, sleeping now, she is holding on tight to her new bear.
