If you want something badly enough, you'll work hard to make it happen.
This is the "loot" Rebecca and I raised last fall so that we could go to New York for an agent/editor conference. We had a big garage sale and gathered every bit of loose change we could find to come up with a big portion of the money we needed.
The big splat of bird poop on the hood is a nice touch, don't you think?

Wow! You made lots of money. It must've been a pretty big garage sale.

How did I miss you yesterday? Peace globe and WW was tough to keep up with.

First, love the bird poop. That always adds a bit of class to anything.

Love the loot though. Yes, hard work is required if you want something bad enough. Have a great day. :)

The garage sale worked out and great and yes, we did make it there! It was a lot of fun and I'll have to post some of our interesting happenings from the trip sometime.
We actually made all that in one morning! We had everything all cleaned up by noon.
