Everything is priced to sell this weekend!
Saturday March 26, Sunday March 27 12-5
Address will be revealed Friday evening. Signup will be on the web Friday evening.
We started with this large house full of stuff. Then we got a houseboat - well, you can't have a sale in a houseboat,
so we moved the better stuff into this house. Then we got a storage unit. Well, you can't have a sale in a storage
unit, so we moved the stuff into the house. I had a jewelry consignment, which I sold before Christmas.
The pleased consignors called, can you sell some more things for us? So we moved it into the house. Then a friend called,
I'm having a garage sale, can you make sure we have everything priced right. So I picked out the better stuff
which got moved into the house. Then the bank called - you want to sell some jewelry? So now the house is stuffed!!
We have over twenty tables of smalls, some statues, some Kinkades, some art, a very rare lighted beer sign, lots of
furniture including a king bed, chests of drawers, a vanity, a queen size Tempurpedic bed, a mahogany dining set with buffet, fine jewelry,
an amazing collection of costume jewelry, guns, coins, books, a washer, dryer, 2 refrigerators, a freezer, oh did
I mention 20+ tables of smalls, clothes including some very vintage, a rare restored Zenith 12U158 short wave radio,
Zenith on glass, dolls, a room full of sewing supplies, 2 sewing machines and a serger, too much to list!

Your best friend calls you and tells you he/she's really sick? How do you show you care?

What do you do when you're sick other than rest or medication?

Have you ever had a dream so real you're certain it happened? What was it?
Also co-sponsored the liquidation of City Motors in Gresham on Saturday. The auctioneers did an excellent job, and we had a good turnout despite miserable weather and limited parking.

Been busier than ever. Handled a couple of large size coin collections, and an interesting accumulation of jewelry in the last month. Lots of appraisals as well. Took 10 days off in Orlando playing bridge, had fun but didn't do very well. Karen came along for the first week, and we got one day off visiting horse farms in Ocala. Even ate at a run down good old southern BBQ shack and survived the experience! Trying online scheduling with some trepidation, hope it works out well, but just waiting for the first double booking disaster.

As a busy mom it can be hard to eat right and stay in shape. What's your secret to staying healthy when life gets hectic?
Guess if I'm going to blog I need to write more than I have been. So I've been very busy, setting up a sale for this weekend, and just posted photos and details on my website hendriksharples.com. Lots of jewelry and art! I played bridge in Penticton in June, and did well with one first, one second, and a couple of lower overalls. Just goes to show you what having a good partner and teammates will do for you. Been golfing every Tuesday, and tommorow I'm hosting the gang for Cedars Beans and Burgers day on the deck - let's hope the good weather holds out one more day.

too tired for words
got another sale starting tomorrow - been busting my butt getting it ready after having just finished one last weekend, and seriously don't see how the guys who do one every week manage. Glad appraising is my focus, I enjoy sales, but if this is all I did I'd be long burned out. details are on my web site http://www.hendriksharples.com/ I particularily like the davenport, really cool hidden shelf mechanism, and hope it goes to a good home. Please come visit me Saturday or Sunday 11-5. The house is for sale also if anyone is looking http://www.34peterkort.com is the link to it, and Tracy the realtor will be there Saturday afternoon.

Next weekend sale is almost ready. Pictures are posted on my website http://www.hendriksharples.com . Lots of cool vintage clothing, lots of stuff, but not the hot antiques sale that will have 100 people busting in the door at 10 am. Please come by and see me.
Working on setup tommorow, and picking up a old but cheap van, then golfing on Tuesday, appraisal on Wednesday, moving furniture to my next sale on Thursday, final sale set up Friday, sale Sat and Sun, my 24/7 schedule continues......

So, after 4 hours in the cold, half the time in driving rain, soaking wet, fingers numb, hands stinging every time I swung the club, I have to question
whether a bad day of golf really is better than a good day of work...

Back from vacation. Had a great time in Reno playing bridge. The smoke was too thick for me to get in any gambling (probably a good thing).
Got a sale coming up on the 10th & 11th, and will be doing another one the following weekend, plus working on appraisals.
