Slump Slump Slump

eBay is now showing us our sales compared with the last year, and it turns out that I am not just imagining the slumpy slumpness of the current sales environment.  My sales are down almost 50 percent from last year and the whole eBay market is down over 30 percent.

In addition, we are having heat wave number 2, 105 heat index with the ghastly humidity.  So, April was the coldest on record, then May was the hottest on record--I am not enjoying this weather joke.

Trapped inside, I have been working on a few things.  I think I am going to sell some of my private collection of antique baskets.  They will only cost 3 arms and 2-1/2 legs, I'm only going to sell if cash is involved!

I spent the day tearing out filthy ugly carpet from my guest room.  I got a nice surprise that the ugly beetroot colored wallpaper is tearing right off--finally, a job that isn't twice as hard as I expected.  I hope to start refinishing the floor soon and then about a week of painting.  Hoping I didn't just jinx myself.

I tell you, this room is so dark and ugly, again I can't believe I have lived with it this long!
