Yard Sale People Are Nuts!

Ok, so we are one week away from moving to Norman! Still haven’t sold our house here in Edmond so there is still a little anxiety here. I know what I am about ready to say may offend some people and if that is the case I apologize now. Yard sale people are nuts! Am I crazy I just don’t get it? My wife decides we need have one of these white trash gatherings at our home since we are moving! I have seen some of the oddest people in my life in my yard the past two days. Any other time I would call the cops, but no they are here to see how much of my junk that can take home for 25 cents! Here is what I have seen. There were people waiting for an hour yesterday before the yard sale started just so the could get the “good deal” ok come on how could it be a good deal because lets be real you don’t buy it I throw it in the trash! I had people banging on my front door at 6:30 AM this morning wanting to know when we open! For those of you who know me I you know don’t do well with those I love at 6:30 AM much less some guy with no front teeth and a smoke in his mouth. Then last night I watch some lady argue with Amanda because she wanted something for 10 cents and Amanda was trying to sell it for 25 cents. Are you kidding me!! So here is what I want to know where do these people come from? I mean Edmond is rich town. It’s like we hide Ma and Pa who think going to the “store” is the yard sale! Then on Saturday morning all the freak shows come out! Do these people have a life! Anyway that’s my rant for the week. I am sure some of you are huge yard sale fans, and if you are well I just hope you don’t bang on someone’s door at 6:30, have all your teeth, and are willing to pay 25 cents. Have a great week!

Aww Skinny you were always lovely with me and Noah at 6:30 in the AM when I would get there. Who we weren't lovely with was Rosie...but let's face it, she deserved it. Happy moving!

Let's just say the last time I had a garage sale, some crazy old bat ran over my brick mailbox and I spent the better part of a month getting it fixed!
