Keeping myself busy

So while Ellie is at Kindergarten summer school, I've had to keep myself busy or I go crazy watching the clock. I've missed her terribly while she's at school and while I've enjoyed the time with just Jakey, it just isn't the same. Anyway, so I've had to come up with a project, or two, to use up some of this 1 child time.

What is this project? The JustBetweenFriends consignment sale. The spring sale I threw everything together at the last minute and it was horrific and awful and I swore I would never do it again, until I got my check for $115. When I got that, I realized how lucrative this could be. So I'm doing the fall/winter sale because I have a TON of winter clothing from both children. I've already started going through tubs and I have two mountanous piles of clothing ready to be washed and oxycleaned and hung up. I still have 1 tub down stairs to go through and 2 upstairs. I'm not sure how much to hope for this this sale, but I know that whatever I make will go towards Christmas and birthdays and hopefully then Christmas won't put such a huge dent in my budget like it did last year.

My next post will be pictures. Obviously I'll tell you what the pictures are, but I need to upload them to the computer first. It's hard to do this blogging thing with a 15 month old running around. I'm trying to do at least one blog a month and I promise to try and do more as time goes on.
