procrastination
whine away, honey! you've got the (blog) floor!!! and you just whine as long as you want 'til you feel better. ((((((((((bw))))))))))
i am *very* envious (in a loving sistah-sort of way) of all your cool bargains today....you racked up! that purple scarf sounds beautimous....
you can whip that paper out in no time...look at the length of our blogs and some of our replies, which...with the exception of some googlin' and wikipedia'ing, is right off the cuff. pffffft. you *are* procrastinating, because it shouldn't take you more than 90 minutes to write that paper. i'm calling your bluff. but you can still whine about it. *g*
I too am quite pleased with the scarf. I wear scarves all the time in the winter - my neck (now little and skinny) seems to stay cold - and I have several, all brightly colored! and this one is long enough to wrap around a couple of times with long tails left over. However, I think I'm even more pleased with the Ralph Lauren shirts. They are in such good shape and I know they were probably $40 each new!! It promises to be a good season for yard sales with an omen such as today's bargains. *nods*
This paper is a bit more challenging than I'd first thought - nevertheless, am making progress.

Why is it that every garage sale I have ever attended has only junky kitchen tschotkes and spit-up stained baby clothes and toys? Your finds sound like real treasures!
Because I don't go to all of the ones that are in the newspaper, not even in my area. I know where the good stuff is (as a rule), though you never can tell - one of my greatest eBay triumphs came from a sort of dumpy looking house. Today there was a community sale in a very nice subdivision, and even though not that many people participated (because it was cool, gray, overcast, and threatening rain), the ones who did had good stuff. There was tons of really nice baby stuff. There was one place that had a big plastic tub full of the nicest little girl stuff, the best brands, a couple of them new with tags - 50 cents each piece. Some of it did have some stains, like from formula, but the outfits themselves were so very nice that for sleepers for myself, I could have overlooked that - especially for 50 cents a piece. I get all my baby gifts from yard sales. There's just too much available with tags still attached to ever pay retail! There was everything you could possibly want for a baby, strollers, carriers, cribs, etc. all in great condition.
And I didn't even get out really early today. If I'm really serious, I'm out by 7:15. One lady told me today that she sold half a garage full of stuff between 7:30 and 8.
I also like church rummage sales because although there can be a lot of trash there, when you find something good, it'll be really cheap.
