Yard sale marketing
If you put it in your yard, they will come.
If you scream enough, they'll all go away.
Mrs. Hillman: Don't touch! I changed my mind! It's not for sale! Finders keepers, losers weepers!
A fairly close, female friend died not too long ago. Suddenly and unexpectedly. They had a house sale with all her lovely things up for grabs. You would NOT find me in there haggling prices over the items she left behind. I couldn’t do it.
Wowwww… (backing slowly away) While Irving may be happy that his beloved teddy won’t be sold for a dime and Cathy may be happy that her new ripped jeans won’t be sold for a fraction of what she undoubtedly paid, they looked ready to make some money from this dumb idea. No wonder the ILs have “lost all their money”! Because she is NUTS and probably gave it away to a person who told her he was a NIgerian prince who has the recipe for Neiman Marcus cookies made with essential oils.
Hello Cathy friends! Happy Thursday! Have a great day, all! (Stay dry, hendelca!)
Definitely a very strange woman. At least Cathy’s mom is strange in a loving way. Irving’s is just play nuts.
Further to my fun adventures of yesterday. I did not get a chill as the air was much warmer than the water – and I changed into dry clothes as soon as I got back to the house. However, I had to do the whole thing over again about 8:00 last evening as the waves managed to loosen another section – this time the first section so I did not have to go out on the dock. Also the waves were a little calmer so I was able to time it between the big ones and only got a little splash rather than a soaking. I certainly don’t mind doing it for my neighbour, after all his tractor is in my yard now so I can do some leveling of the backfill behind the new retaining wall. I have commented several times to various people, including my neighbours, that this is a great neigbourhood with awesome people living here. We still have fairly heavy winds and it is only 60F today so I am staying inside where it is warm and dry.

If you can’t make a sale make a friend.

Irving’s mom needs to be on some emotion balancing meds.

They look like all of Cathy’s work friends. I wouldn’t want my friends to buy my old stuff…to even SEE my old stuff.

Have a great, calm, dry, day.

SIGH …
I think I’m best off letting my colossal [eye-roll] do the talking on this one.
HI, MOM. Hello, “Cathy” Clan.

Glad you’re safe, hendelca…Cathy and Irving will be lucky if the neighbors ever come anywhere near them again after this nut gets through.
