I Need Help – YOUR help

I don’t know if you remembered me mentioning that I have been going through closets and bins and cleaning out.  I have a VERY large stack of kids clothes I need to get rid of and I have an idea of how to do it; only thing is, I am not sure how to flesh it out.  (My husband is SO GOOD at this kind of thing but is kinda “out of pocket” for the next couple days – Honey if you are reading this, post a comment and help *smile*)
So, I want to get the clothes into the hands of people who need them and I want to make a few dollars to help out our family with some medical bills. . . or a new vaccum. . . or medical bills.  So, I thought I would have an online yard sale.  The clothes would then be VERY affordable (for all my seminary friends and others looking for a bargain, you kindred spirits, you), out of my house, and I have been a helper to my husband.  The bonus is that if I do it online, no one has to get up and the break of dawn and put on your fancy skimmers to come out and shop! You can shop in your jammies over toast and jam! The question is HOW do I make it a reality????
I plan to take photos of EVERYTHING.  Is that too much for Craigslist? Do I use my blog for such? Open an Etsy shop? (I really know sooo little about that)  I need ideas people.  I need YOUR help.  If you are a “commentaphob”, then please email me at thebluehutch(at)gmail(dot)com or my personal address if you know it. 
I’ll be waiting with baited breath and loaded camera.

This just in. . .

Today this showed up in my Facebook newsfeed:

“Chad Steenerson and Monica Fulmer Kisselbaugh are now friends.”

To most people, this will mean nothing.  I laughed outloud.  Monica one of my best friends from high school and she has known Chad for over 20 years.  I think it is funny that they are “now” friends. 

Does anyone else think Facebook is both fun and funny???

Big Boy – Day 3 – a set back

No matter how many times this happens to me I never seem to learn my lesson.  When one is asking their friends and family to pray, or praying themselves, one must be specific in their request and specific in their prayers.  I asked you to pray that Bubba would poop and poop he did.  I did NOT ask you to pray specifically that Bubba would poop on the potty – – and he did not.

During nap time.
In his big boy pants.
I almost got sick.

Anyway, that was our biggest day 3 disaster.  We did go to Kgroup tonight at church and the girls in the nursery misinterpreted his whines and grunts so he had an accident.  The fact that they had to clean him up should help them learn that grunts, whines, and pointing does NOT mean I want water it means I need to eliminate water.  (Yes, I did tell them this when I dropped him off.)

So, tomorrow is school.  I am not sure how to think for this.  Besides my son becoming the “freak” who rides the potty backwards, I am not sure if I should send his “Cushie Tushie” with him? How many changes of clothing should I send? I don’t HAVE to put him in a pull-up do I?

I wonder what time his teacher wakes up.
