Happy Wednesday Everyone!
We're at the mid-week mark and almost rounding the bend toward the end of the month. This has been a less than favorable summer weather-wise (for me anyway). Besides all the rain, it's been hot and humid making it uncomfortable to be outside. Today the temperatures have dropped a bit and I don't think we're going to go higher than the 80's F today.
Aside from the few things I need to do around the house this morning I want to take pictures and get some things listed on Ebay. I'm hoping to get some things sold as it would be nice to have the money instead of the items sitting here taking up space. I should have listed them already but being the procrastinator that I am....
I just got a notice that our community is looking to do a Fall yard sale so I'm going to have to see if I have anything worth selling. If I can get rid of the smaller items through Ebay than I can concentrate more on the bigger things that might be more apt to sell at a yard sale.
I'm not that savvy at yard sales so I don't know what items people generally look for.
Anyway, that's it for now.
It's time to see what's happening here in the myLot world and of course coffee!

I hope your items sell soon! I know everyone is different but what I look for at a yard sale is Home School items, children's toys/items, perfume, candles and sometimes clothing. My husband looks for tools of course or fishing gear.
When we move into a home we will be looking at yard sales for home decor and furniture. =)

I know toys and tools are always popular. I don't have either

Decluttering is time consuming and I usually procrastinate when it's on my "to do" list

It's been a crappy summer here also. Alot of rain and humid here also, it stormed last night & we lost power. It's gonna be 80 here today also and possibly more rain, so much fun.

Seems as if every day has rained and I don't know if we broke any records for a rainy summer but it certainly seems like we did.

Normally I hate to see summer go because that means it's not too far away for snow and ice. But this summer was just too hot and rainy to enjoy

We also had some stormy weather early this morning but the sun came out and it's only been in the 80's all day.

I try to keep things small that I sell on Ebay so I don't have big packages to mail. Luckily I drive so getting to the post off or local mail station isn't a problem.

Here, we had a sunny day a while ago, but at this time, the weather has changed and the sky is now filled with clouds. It seems like we are going to have more rain coming

Is all this rain common for your area? It seems as if my part of the US has had a rainy summer

During the hottest and worst part of the summer I was down and out recovering from my concussion, so I didn't go outside at all. And I kept all of the window coverings drawn because that bright sunshine hurt so much.
Today is a cool and drizzly day here. I'm hoping that the long weekend, which will be here before we know it, will be nice and sunny and warm. We have a wedding to go to down in Michigan, so I hope its nice for the couple marrying's sake.

I spent most of the summer indoors as it was just too hot to be outside for long periods of time. I remember when I was young how much I loved spending time at the beach and the heat never bothered me.
I'm hoping you have beautiful weather for your trip to Michigan and the couple have a beautiful day to celebrate their marriage.

Isn't this break in the heat wonderful
I don't know how many things I have to sell at rock bottom prices so joining the yard sale is iffy

I can deal with hot but when it's excessively humid it's too much for me

That's why I don't know if I'll participate. I haven't even looked through my things to see if anything is worth putting out and selling for a small amount of money.
