Friday........Junk Sale Day.........

Saw my Doc yesterday, swelling and fluid on knee gone, so he was happy. Admonished me for the umpteenth time to "don't over do it"! Said healing was more important. No more outpatient physical therapy........just work on some of the exercises to strengthen leg muscles. See him again on the 23rd.

Got up "early" today for Becky's garage sale. I pulled the trailer around from the side of the house and it just barely fit in the garage so we loaded it up with junk yesterday. Had a few tables set up and the early birds were picking things over before we even had things completely set up. I guess we actually got started around 0800...........by noon a whole bunch of junk was gone; but, some stuff still left over. Guess we'll just roll the trailer back out tomorrow morning and put up a sign that ses "make offer.....nothing refused".

I think she managed to sell a little over $200.00 worth of stuff.............believe me, it takes a lot of goodies at 25 and 50 cents and a dollar each to reach that amount. I think we got $15.00 for the most expensive item............a brand new converter box that you have to have for the old style television/antenna set ups. I got a coupon for the item way back when and I think I paid $5 or $10 for the box with my coupon. The rest of the stuff was almost a give away...........but it's now gone!

Went out for lunch, stopped at casino and I made a contribution today after getting ahead yesterday............easy come easy go.

Later. W&B
