When it Rains, It Pours


It took nearly 2 months, four borrowed trucks, two borrowed trailers, and two 60 mile trips to organize an Adoption Garage Sale.  We were ready.  We even had a few volunteers along with a babysitter; then, we looked outside.  It wasn't just raining, it was a total downpour that lasted 9 hours.  We were defeated.  It feels like every time we tried to raise the money for this next adoption, it fails.  We only sold 2 tee shirts.  We spent more sending out donation letters to businesses than we got back.  The picture of Noah that asked people help make him a big brother only brought back $5.  I am frustrated, super stressed out, and disappointed.
Alas, there will be another sale and it was good to see our old friends.
