Hey everyone! I hope your all doing well today. =) I am doing well too. My husband and I have decided we are not going to move just yet-we are tired of doing it so we are waiting a little longer. My husband already told the landlord too that we are going to stay for a bit. Hopefully the neighbors will warm up to us with time...
Anyway, whenever the warmer weather comes around my husband and I start up a little side business. I post the ads and he gets the stuff. We offer to pick up people's unwanted items and we have yard sales with the items we get. We have ton's of fun with this! We already got 2 calls today for it. =) The people have furniture, clothes and baby items they want gone! They get rid of their unwanted stuff and we make a little bit of money doing it. Win, win!
Do you have anything you like doing once the weather gets warmer?

That sounds like a great way to make extra money. I wish you all the best with that. I am glad you decided not to move.

Oh that is a good way to get some quick cash. If the items need refurbishing you can do that and get even more money for them.

@LovingMyBabies I keep telling my husband that we should do that too. He loves to refurbish things and when we see a free item along the roadside I will ask him to pick it up. He refuses to do so though.

@ElusiveButterfly My husband stops to get things at the curb all the time. He has found some really nice things before! I'm sorry your husband won't do it. =(

That sounds like a good way to bring in some extra cash and if you lived closer to me I'd be able to donate some of the stuff that is clogging my garage. Guess when it's time to move you'll know so just keep the faith.

For me there's nothing as such that I do specially in the warm season. But I really love the way you guys work together. This is incredible. The idea is awesome. Good Luck with this side business of yours.

@workathomefan Indeed they are. But they are doing it together and they are a happy couple, so hard work wouldn't make them feel too tired, as the love is combined.

Good luck with selling stuff. I hope your neighbors improve, but that doesn't usually happen when neighbors share walls things get dicey for sure.
