Moving...

Moving.


Need I say more?


But after too many days of packing and moving boxes, bags and furniture... I've begun to settle in. Sort of.


Why is it even now I can't let go of stuff that's been in a box for over a month and I haven't missed? My To Be Read shelf(ves) are like my credit card balances--I'll never see them empty--meaning there's no way I'll ever be able to read all these books. (Thank goodness the audio books are hidden on a computer. LOL) Twenty quilt projects from now, I'll still have fabric.


Why is it so difficult to let go?


So, I'll take a deep breath and be brave. No, not brave--ruthless! Like a pirate I'll take my cutlass and carve a path through the clutter.

Only one question will remain...Why didn't I do more of this BEFORE I moved!

  2. Hmmm. I don't know what it is about me but I can be ruthless about clutter. My three are savers and at times drive me crazy. I've been known to let go of something and wonder later why--but don't tend to dwell. I see the world as an abundant place. When I have a need I seem to find just the right thing. I'm okay with reduce, reuse and recycle loving second hand stores, consignment stores and garage sales.
