Well, it's done. I haven't figured out how much money I made, I need to add up the prices of all the stuff I sold and subtract the table cost ($30) I know I made a little profit, just not sure how much, and I took way more change than I needed, so my total may be a bit off, but it will be close enough. I'm happy I cleared the table price. Some of the stuff I sold was to other sellers. We had streams of people, then a lull, then more people, then a lull. I thought plenty of people came in; granted, it could have been more, but better some than none. I heard one lady say she expected a lot more than actually came because of all the advertising they did. I suppose more could have, but wasn't going to complain. I didn't get rid of all the stuff that I wanted to, but I was happy to do something different on my Saturday than just the normal old stuff, and make a little money, too. I wish I hadn't brought home as much as I did, but that is what it is. I was happy with myself that, even though I was tempted, I didn't spend any money. I was there to make a bit of money and get rid of stuff, not spend it and bring more stuff home. I did come home with a little cactus plant from one of the sellers, but she was giving them away once the sale was over. I had a really short sleep last night, and woke up way earlier than I meant to, but I'm glad I went and did what I did. Once I got home, I put some things away, brought the wagon I borrowed to take my stuff back to the neighbors and left a "Thank you" card, and tried to give six dollars that another neighbor (both upstairs) lent me for change, but no one was home. I was invited by another lady to participate in a craft show her mobile home park (?) is hosting, and I don't know if I really have anything, but I might try to make some things if I can do it quickly. I think that will be in November. I went and got the mail, and received a check from my brother for my share of the rent from our house, something from Capitol One that from the feel of it is a fake "credit card" with a letter about how I'm pre-approved or some such, and two envelopes from people wanting money. Between the money today, and the check from my brother, I'll have money to put in the bank on Monday. Thanking the Lord for that! I wrote everything I sold and the price it sold for down in a little booklet I brought with me, so I'll add that up and subtract the price of the table. As foggy as my brain feels right now I'm not sure wheter or not it will be %100 accurate, but it will be close enough. I'm glad that I got to participate in this today.

Yup. Couldn't fit it all in the wagon the first time.

I’m glad you made a little something. Hopefully, it was enough to help a little here and there. That’s kind of cool that you had some stuff the other sellers were interested in too!
