Today was a day I was dreading. Set up for porch sale? Help! I prayed before I got out of bed, asking God to send me help. And he did! Five great friends came to help. I did hear an "Oh, my" occasionally.

Maybe I need to start a craft and second hand shop! Looks mighty good. I told everyone not to make things look too attractive or I might take it all back. I took back only 2 things.
At one point another friend stopped by and said she thinks the sale was not advertised properly in the paper. I had programmed an ad on line. In the paper it claimed a garage sale at 214th Ave. There is no such place in Park Falls. I called in the afternoon and complained. They will either run the ad again next week or give me a refund. I may have the sale next weekend also if things don't sell well this week--or I find more things to put out.
Later in the day I left my mark around town. Hopefully it was enough to bring in the crowds tomorrow. I didn't know how to secure the large signs. Then I thought to take wire hangers, straighten the hook and duct tape them to the back of the sign. Yeah! Sharp points to stick into the ground.
This has been a good "get ready for a porch sale" day in the life of Grandma G.
