Never Again!
Excuse me while I vent. A few weeks ago we had a much needed yard sale. Overall, it went pretty well. I guess that's the whole point of a yard sale, right? Get rid of stuff and get a little $.
Well, to make a long story short - I feel such regret over the littlest things (I expect no sympathy from anyone, corey, by-the-way). Mostly the kids' toys. I had a box of toys that we just took out of storage without even opening it. Now that I look back on it, that box of toys shouldn't have even gone to the yard sale.
Well, yard sales get a little crazy. People just started opening boxes and I didn't even get a chance to think about what toys I wanted to keep.
Well, I get really stupid under pressure. I sold Aubrey's barbie doll for a dollar. It wasn't just any barbie doll - it was Island Princess barbie. It sang songs from the movie. It's super hard to find now. I know, because yesterday Aubrey found the Island Princess movie and, of course, wanted her doll. Mostly out of curiosity, I looked online to see if I could possibly get another one for cheep - try $50 - $85!!!! Now I really feel silly.
I guess this really just means if I let myself, I would probably be a MAJOR hoarder. I could go on and on about the yard sale. Island Princess barbie is just one of the many items I regret selling.
I think in the future I should never have a yard sale again. I will give to D.I. just like I always have. At the same time, I was happy to get rid of a lot of stuff and we did make $. Never say never.
