Stuff

Stix n Brix
Clayton, NC

We had a visitor Monday afternoon.  A hummingbird hovered at our big window at the breakfast nook.  I think she was trying to tell us something because I hadn't put the feeder out.  Is it possible that she remembered the feeder from last year?  Needless to say, I stopped what I was doing and got the feeder ready.



We've been a little busy the past couple of days getting some things ready for Saturday's yard sale.  We even gathered up two big bags of "stuff" to throw away.  It's a nice feeling to make progress even if it's just small steps.  Gin has also put our waverunners on Craigslist.  I hope whoever buys them enjoys them as much as we did.  It's a good time of year to sell them so wish us luck.

While gathering up some junk to throw out, I found a few fortunes from fortune cookies.  Let me share them.  "Prosperity is a way of living and thinking, and not just having money or things."  "The most important things in life aren't things."  And the one that we really need to remember during the next few months, "All the effort you are making will ultimately pay off."

I want to welcome two recent additions to the list of followers.  Ruth who was at the rally and David & Maxine who were also at the RV-Dreams rally.  That was a great time in the Smokies and we are looking forward to going to another one.

Thanks for dropping by, and enjoy each day of your life's journey by finding beauty in the ordinary.

Isn't it funny how fortune cookies always seem to have the right fortune for the right time? Those were very appropriate.
Good luck with the sale this weekend!

Sometimes fortune cookies are so well...right on :) I have one taped to my monitor at work that says 'you will travel soon'. Oh yeah, baby!

We were in Fuquay Varina yesterday and we thought about looking for the two of you but then the rain set in and we headed back to Lillington to stay with our daughter...

Pretty cool that you stumbled upon those fortunes right now. Those little confirmations can really be helpful, especially during the purging process.

Good luck with your yard sale this weekend!

I agree it's a good time of year for the waverunners to go on Craig's list. Hopefully the buyers will not only have as much fun with them as you did, but take as good of care of them too.

We got a fortune cookie the other night that didn't have a fortune in it. Sort of like our bank account, no fortune in there, either! ;c)

Good luck with the sale. I'd love to come but then I'd want to take something to help you out and we don't have room. We're still hoping to see you while we're here. May 17th we'll head to Canada.
