7-2-10

9:20AM

Worked some more this morning on removing
silicone from the molding, grrr.

Getting ready to head out to some garage sales.
Tony's got the day off for July 4th. He was able
to choose either Friday or Monday.
Will let you know if we find some good deals :0)

Oh by the way, the cabinets and appliances I posted
yesterday that I thought was a great deal is GONE.
Told you someone would snatch it up!

2:45PM

Just home from yard sales, car title place, insurance place
(for blue Trans Am) and Kroger.

Yard sales sucked today meaning there were fewer than
normal probably due to the holiday weekend.

6 Glad and Ziploc storage containers
FREE (in a freebie box)


Mark Martin Plaque $1.00
putting this up for Christmas for step-dad


Found a purse identical to the one I just
got recently at another yard sale.
This one was .50 cents
mine was $1.00
gonna give mom this other one.
The lady said she bought all her purses
from Khols so that is where these came from.


We were gonna stop by a store and pick up
a cheap sander to start work on sanding the
hood on the blue trans am. Would have cost
$10 to $15 for a cheap bobo one.
Found a Dewalt sander with case at a yard
sale for $15, offered $10 but got it for $13.
Hey any money off is good and is still better
than that cheap bobo we would have got.
These go for $50 at Lowes!


3:00PM

Eating a late lunch then heading out. Decided we would
wait for Toy Story 3 to hit the dollar theaters and
instead we are going to Pacemakers Dragway in
Mount Vernon this evening. Going North while
400,000 people head towards downtown Columbus
to see fireworks tonight.
Taking along a picnic type supper.
Turkey & cheese sandwiches, chips,
Big K 12 packs pop and some leftover
crock pot cake.

We will be seeing the Whetstone fireworks Sunday
at 10PM. We sit at our secret spot to enjoy
fireworks without crowds or traffic and still
have a really good view!

Just got home from Mount Vernon's Pacemaker's
Race Track and we are tired. Will post pics
and/or videos tomorrow. Been a long afternoon/evening!

I took along a couple books from the library.
Been reading about Nostradamus. Got one book read
about his biography and am working on the next
one called Nostradamus-The Lost Manuscript.
I'm the type that goes into a library to find
a book to feed my brain with. Not so much novels
and things like that but ones that teaches me
about something.
If ever there is a book I see advertised on
tv that looks interesting
I'll immediately go to the library's web site
and reserve it if they have it. It's free!

Getting up early tomorrow and heading out to
the flea market then a car show in the afternoon.

Well my eyes are burning and watering.
6:30AM is gonna come awfully early tomorrow.
Nighty night!
