On a very sad note, I am so sorry for the devastating tornadoes that ripped through the Southeast in the last few days.  I was watching the aerial footage over Tuscaloosa from a news helicopter and it was just unreal, the damage was heart-breaking.  My heart aches for Alabama and the other Southern states for [...]

Fall is actually a good time for yardsaling around here.  People are trying to get rid of things before the Holidays and it’s cooling off.  Plenty of neighborhoods gear up for their sales this month too and one of my favorites is Eagle Point.   I always try to hit that one and it was this [...]

Those 2 don’t exactly go together, but that was my Saturday. It was such a hot and humid day on Saturday and totally rivaled any hot weather we’ve had in July OR August combined.  Whewwww, I’m tired after all of that, but what a fun yardsale we had!  A total HOOT!  The earlybirds arrived around [...]
