Saturday is sale day, and Kyle spent the night, so he was drafted to help. Here is the manz directing placement of a mattress to his happy helpers- they then hid from the sun behind the mattress until it was sold.
It is so nice to have the boy home- he can help lift and carry all the furniture so we can make multiple trips to get sellable stuff, plus he is starting on his selling skills. Saturday was an excellent day as we sold a dining set, bed and mattress set, assorted other things including chairs, dressers, small stuff, all the fishing rods (yay! I am always afraid of the hooks) and just did well overall. I love doing this- we are all together outside, get to meet people and talk, our friends stop by and I paint the whole time (and get the ego stroked by compliments- even though my skills are rusty at the moment...I painted the lighthouse this weekend, not quite finished but it isn't quite right....) Anyway, a good (and profitable) time is had by all. And the boys get to be outside in the sun, and we have excellent unpaid labor (evil mummy). Seriously, Grendel seems to like helping Charles, and they have (so far) come back smiling from their 'workbonding' experiences. Which is a good thing-
