Homeschooling Triplets

Mar. 3, 2007

YAY!  The first consignment sale is over and done with!  I'm tired!  I don't know exactly how much I made, but I do know that I made more than I spent.

I have another sale next weekend and then that is it for me and sales (I think).

Every toy I got out in the garage to get it ready for the sale is now BACK in our house.  I've had these toys out there for at least 6 months, you would think they would be safe.  But when the kids saw them it was like these toys were there VERY favorites that they lost so so so so long ago.  I wonder if I will be able to get anything out of the house next weekend.

Yesterday, I took a big stuffed bear chair to the sale.  It is cute, but we just don't have the room for it.  My daughter cried and cried all night long for it.  She said, "I'm going to miss my bear chair. Are we going to be able to visit it?".  Anyway- I'm not exagerating.  She had a nightmare and couldn't sleep and kept us up all night long.  So this morning I called the Sale Coordinator and asked her to pull the chair from the sale.  I guess I am lucky it didn't sell Friday night.  Good grief!

I ended up taking Ashley to the doctor today.  This is the 3rd weekend in a row we have visited the doctor's office.  She has an ear infection called swimmers ear (apparantly this is an infection outside the eardrum).  So she has been a pill (as they say down here in the south).  The good thing about this time is that I knew why she has been acting so bad and I could deal with it better.

I'm really looking forward to Monday!  We are taking a tour at the Purity company.  I know they didn't have Purity up north when I lived there.  So I'm not sure if this is just a local company or how far it goes out.  But they make dairy products and they have some very yummy ice cream.  So I think this field trip will be lots of fun!

Take care!  ~Chelle

Sounds like your sale was definitely a success if you came home with money after spending : ) I can completely relate to you bringing toys into the house and everyone crying that they were their favorites and mommy you can't get rid of it...I need it!! When I do any cleaning or junking out these days I do it when everyone is outside playing or visiting next door at grandma's house. LOL. What they don't see can't hurt them : )

Aww, poor little girl and her bear chair. WTG on making more than you spent. That's always a good thing. LOL

My DS did something similar. We were cleaning his room and thinning out his toys together. He got rid of a ton of animals that day. They were in a basket in the hall to be discarded the next day.

DS woke up that night crying his little heart out. When I went into his room to console him and see the problem, he didn't even speak to me. He just got up, went into the hall, rooted through the pile of animals, got a little fat polar bear, said, "Pig!", and took Pig back to bed. End of discussion. LOL I guess he had second thoughts because it was his choice to get rid of him in the first place.
