Blog Yard Sale
So here’s the deal. On the 15th of this month, I get my DFS check which will finally accurately represent the children in this house. Plus the mileage check which I’ve been waiting on.
But before then I need to pay my rent, and my Cingular bill and my Direct TV bill.
AND I really really really really want to take Callie, Izzy and Bug to see one of my favorite Broadway shows which will be performing in the Big City this month. But I have to buy tickets for it before the 15th. And even if we sit in the very back section, it is expensive. But Callie and Izzy have never seen a broadway show and Bug loves them and hell, I do too.
So I figured I would have a blog yard sale. I’ve been looking around looking for stuff I could sell and thought I’d offer it up to see if anyone wants anything. (Sort of like when the fabulous Angela sold her shoes!)
I’m going to keep adding to this list as I find stuff so check back:
1. I have a laptop. It’s an emachines. It sells for $895. It is less than a year old. You can read about it here:

Nothing is wrong with it, except Snowbaby ripped the “B” key off, but I’ll put that back on before I send it to you. I’m willing to make a really good deal on it. I’ll even through in one of those cooling pads and a funky trigger mouse thing.
2. “Wicked: The Grimmerie.” Mint condition. This is the behind the scenes book from the musical Wicked. Very awesome. I paid $40 for it back when it came out.
3. The book “Shopaholic and Baby” I always take my dust jackets off the books when I get them and I can’t find the one that is supposed to go with this one. But there is nothing wrong with the book.
4. I also have some size 2 and size 4 American Eagle and Old Navy jeans/pants. Most are “short” because I am.
Ummm..that is all I can think of right now. I’m off to find more stuff. If you are interested in anything, leave me a comment or send me an email to baggageandbug@yahoo.com
Edited to add: I found some more books. I’ve got paperbacks of ”The Nanny Diaries” and “The Historian” by Elizabeth Kostova. I’ve also got the hardback of “Julie and Julia” but it is missing the dust jacket.

Maybe we can all add stuff to your yard sale and donate profits to the “baggage” fund.
I will put an assortment of fabric into the yard sale. 10 pieces for $20.00

Yes! I will add a hand-knitted scarf for $20 or hat for $15. I am a good knitter! I know it’s hot out, but think of the cooling winter time! You can give her your address for mailing and then Baggage can let me know if anyone has taken me up on this and I’ll start work. I can also do multiple scarves/hats. All scarves/hats will be mostly natural fiber, double-stranded, multi-shaded. Average completion time: hat, 1 week, scarf 2 weeks. Get your Christmas gifts early! I can do sizes baby–adult.

I also have spare assorted fabric in many colours. Some large pieces, solids, and cute calico prints. 5 grab-bag pieces for $20

I’m also happy to add something knitted. I’ll do hat or scarf for 15 dollars; Booga bag (a sort of drawstring, felted bag (you can look it up online to see it) for $20.00 or fingerless gloves for $15. I’ll use Noro Kureyon yarn or Cascade 220 for the bag and we can discuss yarns for the other items if anyone is interested.
