Saturday was the bi-annual North Ranch garage sale—lots of North Ranch people participate and tons of people come in to shop from the surrounding areas.
Photo is from the garage sale last spring but it gives you an idea of how many people turn out for this event! I was very pleased with my finds—old Pyrex bowls, Corning Ware bowls with lids and the biggest score—a 7.5 foot pre-lit Christmas tree for $20!!!!!—I’ve been searching the internet for a reasonable priced Christmas tree with no success—the prices range from $200 and up, way up!! The cowboy purchased some tools, a bar stool, wire and who knows what else! A successful day!
Saturday afternoon Barry was pressed into service helping Michael mount two sets of the upper cabinets. I painted—again, but today I finished!! The living room, kitchen and dining/sun room are all painted and look fabulous! Tonight Michael and I cleaned up, re-installed the switch plates, duct covers, etc., and moved the furniture into the living room—we loved it!!! A bit more furniture than we needed but it works—when I get everything cleaned I will take some photos.
So, we’ve been working hard—but it’s all coming together!
Can't wait to see the photos of your house. It's sounding fabulous! I've been searching for a pre-lit tree too! Arrrgh...you really scored and I'm jealous.
