Saturday Happenings

Today I had to work a little while.  The company I work for, owns a commercial building that held a thrift store.  The thrift store went out of business and left a building full of items.  So we are going to have an indoor yard sale next Saturday to sell all the items.  I have a charity group I use lined up to be present when the sale is over to pick up the items left over.  There is a room full of black trash bags full of clothing and items that were donated.  Those bags are stacked to the ceiling!  This will be interesting, to say the least.  I think Daughter #2 is going to help me with the sale.  I hope most of the items are taken before the sale is over.  There is furniture, appliances, clothing, toys, shoes, books, you name it.  All kinds of items you'd see at a sale, and a lot of them.  It is very hot in there.  Maybe it will be cool next Saturday.  One of my tenants came in over there.  She was the postal carrier.  What a coincidence!

I called all our tenants yesterday that owe us money.  I had 10 evictions in my car to post, but decided I'd try calling one time before posting.  I collected from 4 families, and received a promise from one more for tomorrow.  That made a big dent in what we needed to get this month.  Tomorrow after church I'll have to go out and post the ones that didn't pay!

Daughter #3 still does not have a phone.  She did borrow one to call me and ask me to pick up GrandBoy today.  So he is here with us.  I met her at the grocery store to pick him up.  He was tired so I don't think he had a nap today.  He ate, and laid down on his pallet. 

We'll that is about all today.  I look forward to talking again tomorrow.  Honey

Fabulous Friday

Our farm sign

I'm always glad to see Friday come!  It is a busy day, but always enjoyable because it leads us to the weekend.  The weather was really nice today.  Which is always good when you are out in it! 

I had about 10 evictions to post today.  Pappy wants me to get them hung up on the residences, so maybe people will start paying.  I called all of them, and many will pay tomorrow.  We'll see.  One of the trailers is empty today.  The tenants slipped out before the deputy came to move them out.  That's always better than the alternative. 

Daughter #3 has no phone.  Something happened to hers (that part of the story is hazy).  So we can't get in touch with her or GrandBoy.  Today, she called me and her sister from the consignment shop she was visiting!  I can just hear her, "Can I use your phone to call my Mama?"  It makes me nervous that she has no phone.  Hopefully she will bring GrandBoy over tomorrow to say for church Sunday. 

I think I found some ladies who are willing to pray with me about some personal matters.  I will be so happy to see where this leads!

Today I started drinking "pregnancy tea".  No, I'm not pregnant.  I am drinking it to cure other health problems I am experiencing.  I am suppose to drink four glasses a day.  Well, to me it smells like flowers.  I smell Everything before I put it in my  mouth!  So I decided to mix it with my regular iced tea.  I drink about a half gallon a day by myself, so I don't think this will be a problem to get down.  I can still taste the flowers, but it is much better this way.  I hope I can tell that I am receiving the healing powers of the herbs in the tea.

Well, I guess that is about all today.  I hope you have a wonderful and relaxing weekend.  Honey
