order poly mailers and tissue paper(I went with my classic kraft tissue and these mailers) send a letter in the mail- figure out the front porch staining situation
- attend our local “Food Truck Wednesday” for dinner (they cancelled the event due to rain)
start Don Quixote(at over 800 pages, this is only slightly intimidating, hah! here we go!)- decide on a paint color for Sophie’s room
decide on a paint color for the little boys’ headboards(I’m going to try Rustoleum’s chalk paint in Coastal Blue)
What about you? What do you hope to accomplish in the next two weeks?
Congrats on your inventory!
Thank you! I'm having so much fun.
Gosh, yes, the slowing down. I'm struggling with our schedule, despite only have ONE KID at home during school days, so I want to figure out how to make things work in these next couple of weeks! It feels like we don't have a day off with Logan working most weekends.
Totally understand. I'll pray for you if you pray for me.
You got it 🙂
Love your lists, so inspiring! (Running…for fun?!)
Hah! I must be a little crazy. 😉
P.S. On Poshmark, do you ever encounter the scenario where someone will put one item in a bundle and then just leave it at that? I tried looking it up online what "that means" but I am wondering what you do, if anything, when someone does that!
Yes! Most of the time, I don't do anything. That said, if the item isn't getting much other traction, I will sometimes give an offer, even though the "bundle" is only one piece. Sometimes it will bring a sale, you never know!
Thank you!
