I thought I'd spend a week or so of blog posts so that you can see just what goes into doing this business of buying and selling junk.
My day (Saturday) started out, not so early, as I decided to sleep in. Saturday is one of the only days for that so sometimes I throw care to the wind and wake up when my body says it's time, not when the alarm says it's time.
A couple of my seller friends knew a comic book guy and I had a meeting at 11:00 with him.
It was very fruitful and I learned a lot about comic books and about what I have in my recent comic book find. That was over around 12:30 and then home for lunch with Mr. R.
After Lunch I had to run to the Gresham Barn to drop off my Christmas items for next week's Christmas in the Country sale. Of course I stayed and chatted with Jodi for awhile and took some pics. I'll share more pics later this week. The Sale Starts on Wednesday so be sure to mark your calendars.
While at the barn I got a phone call from a friend... who has a friend... who has some stuff... for me to look at. I arranged with her to hook up next week, as it was already around 3:00 and had stuff at home to do.
At around 5:00 I spent an hour or so taking 114 pics for my Etsy listings... and then it was Dinner time with Mr R.
After dinner we stopped at the craft store for some glue that I needed, and something that he was needing as well.
After dinner I loaded pics and am getting ready to edit them and wrote this post. It is now 7:30 and I'll be editing for about an hour and then who knows what else I'll do.
I've got some pieces that need repair (hence the glue) and a project waiting in my project room that I just might tackle still tonight.
So that is Saturday...
Remember to follow along with me this week, and You'll be surprised how much time I actually spend doing this. But I love every minute of it.

Glue! I love my glues!! I have so many different kinds...all with different purposes! Ha! Do you?
Sounds like a wonderful full day. Glad you found someone for the comic books...now you know what you have!
I will be looking forward to tagging along with you this week!
Hugs

I'm anxious to tag along this week since I "junk and sell" like you. I don't sell on etsy but have considered it...but I do have a booth. I'm always busy, but love it!!!
I know you spend a TON of time on your junking. Tell you what - let's do something different than Mexican food this time - YOU pick and I'll pick next time! I can go Mon or Wed this week, and after Thanksgiving. We'll have family here all next week! Call me when you have time!
