Mikki--I believe I understood exactly what you were saying, I think our comments were being written simultaneously.

Others may not like it, but I understand how you feel--it's a great thing she's doing, but there are a LOT of us that are struggling & will continue to do so.

Mikki--I understand what you are saying. Those of us that are trying to 'do the right thing' struggle along & our kids may not get the expensive toys that the less fortunate children receive via donations.

That doesn't make it wrong, or right. It can be difficult for those that are struggling to see others get the donations--because we are not eligible for donations it can grate our nerves. Being "middle class" sucks sometimes!

That said, Kellie, you are doing a wonderful thing to attempt to keep those girls together & hopefully, you will be allowed to keep them.

Thanks Nascar & Just--I truly don't know what I have done to upset her...other than disagree with her.

How many times do we have to go over this??? The reason we got upset was this went on 3 (as in 1, 2, 3) weekends in a ROW. There IS an ordinance about rummage sales being held often. No, it's not enforced unless someone complains.

we would NOT have had a problem with it if it went on sporadically/occassionally.

as I have said before, if it were quarterly, that would be great.

BTW--if indeed you do have drug dealers in your neighborhood--why don't you apply some of your excess energy to getting RID of them??? Call the PD every time you see something--sooner or later they WILL catch them & it will stop.

instead of complaining (a lot in many different blogs) about it--DO something to help change the situation.

Now, before you attempt to turn my words against me, that is what I HAVE been doing. I have been working with the City to find an arrangement that will work for all of us.

I'm sure you won't consider it a good reason, but we do not agree with her location. It doesn't belong in a neighborhood.

Actually, since this all started, we have dug around & found stuff in the dark reaches of our closets--and taken it all to Goodwill.

Maybe you are right. Maybe there are friends bringing people. My point [again] is that NO ONE KNOWS.

We live about 1.5 blocks from a bus route. The point I was attempting to make is there hasn't been a lot (any?) bus passengers arriving. The other locations that assist people are also OPEN more than just weekends.

The buses do not operate on Sundays.
