Garage sale

It was the annual fall garage sale in the neighbor hood today. I was up out in the garage at 6.30 am getting the drive way ready for customers. Marta was at work, Alex at grandma and grandpa's and Fia sound asleep. It was just Milu and I and not one early bird in sight. The sale was advertised to be between 7-11, that means they are in line at 6.15 to get the good stuff.

I only sold for about $75 today, that includes $50 I got for Fia's old crib. I still got all kinds off junk in the garage, good stuff that will be out in the spring when we do this again. I have had some odd looking lightbulbs, 24 of them, for five years worth of garage sales and no takers. Until this year.

Man, What are these?

I, Lightbulbs.

Man, Oddly shaped.

I, Yep, they are $7 a pop at walmart.

Man, How many do you got?

I, 24.

Man, I give you five bucks.

I, Sold.

Mans wife, What the hell are you going to do with these?

Man, Sell them for $2 each at our garage sale next week.

I wish him luck!
