Good morning. I was up with the birds at 5 o’clock and took the Scotties outside. It was lovely and breezy, a pretty day coming up. Rain is forecast for tonight or tomorrow, but it is another perfect day for those having extended garage sales in our neighborhood. Mark and I sold out yesterday, in some cases practically giving things away, but once it’s out of the house I don’t like to bring it back in. Ha ha. We made 130 some dollars, pretty good considering we didn’t have a lot of items.

Markymark and Lani are emptying their original house that will be put up for sale shortly. Waterfront property on the Harris chain of lakes is tough to find and sells fast. Theirs is a three bedroom two bath two car garage with the dock and boatlift. I’m sure they won’t have any problems getting that sold quickly. 

eBay sales have suddenly picked up. I sold three items in two days. I hope it continues as I have quite a few things on listing. Anyway, Mark has taken the parcels to the post office for scanning and then doing a little grocery shopping. We are trying the South Beach diet and it involves going every four days for salad items.  It’s working, very slowly, but what the heck ... we’re not going anywhere anytime soon. our next RV trip isn’t until mid May, then another in early June. In the meantime, there’s plenty of work to be done around here. Isn’t there always?

Sue and Wayne are in the keys with their friends Amy and Raymond for a few nights. I enjoyed seeing the pictures as we haven’t been for many many many years. Perhaps it’s time to go back for a visit?

Beautiful 🤩 

We went for an early walk as rain was moving in about 6 o’clock. 15 minutes before that we were caught in the wind and had to rush back. It was like being sandblasted with bits of the trees. It rained heavy for a few minutes and now it’s just a nice steady rain and we’re sitting on the front porch enjoying the coolness of the evening.
