Yard Sales.  What is it about having a yard sale that makes you feel like you have been run over by a train?

We did well.

The last time we had a sale, we sold almost everything we owned.  We cleaned out a 3400 sq ft house.  That was a HUGE MAMA of a sale.  I would have to say we had ten times as much to sell at that sale as we had to sell here this weekend.

But we made more than 50% of what we made before.  Much more than we expected.  I don’t know how that happened.  Well, I do know how that happened. . . It was in the clothes piles.

The clothes seemed to multiply like loaves and fish.  (In Matthew 14:13-21, Jesus blessed 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish and fed 5,000 men AND their women and children and had 14 baskets of scraps left over.)  We had a pile of kid’s clothes, a pile of teen/men’s clothes, a pile of infant/toddler clothes and a rack full of women’s things.  We had 5,000 people (hehe) pick through those piles and carry away arms full.  AND there were still nine garbage bags full of clothes left over!  They were multiplying, I tell you!

God is Cool.  Thank You Lord!

Keep in mind, we came here to Florida four months ago in a motorhome with nothing but what would fit in said motorhome…  Our Blessings have multiplied like the clothes piles.   99% of what we have . . . of what we had to sell was donated.

People are Cool too.   Thank You Family and Friends and Strangers!

We are, oh so tired.  Going to bed early.  Well,  I have been in bed most of the evening already, but. . .   I just wanted to check in and say “Hello, I’m fine.”

Tomorrow’s another day . . . Another wonderful, God-made, God-filled Day.
