Room

I woke up this morning and just got totally disgusted trying to make my way out of my bedroom to the bathroom. I mean, I've been stepping over stuff for two years just because there is nowhere else in the house to put some of it. And, with the collection of junk comes dust and cobwebs. I haven't been able to get into my closet without a major effort. So today, I decided (again) to make an effort to move stuff around. I hate to be working inside when it is so beautiful outside, but it would feel wonderful if I actually could find places for all of the "schtuff" that I THINK I need to keep.

Of course, when one room is being dug out, another is inundated with the overflow. That would be the kitchen. I'm getting a "donate" stack going in there. No one else can tell that I have made progress. If I could keep my cleaning/sorting/pitching momentum going, it would probably take me another two weeks to get it actually DONE. Am also trying to get a stack of radio junk ready to peddle at the Dayton Hamvention...coming up in a couple of weeks. Which reminds me that I need to get my hairs cut... (Just made the appt. for tomorrow at 10:30.)

If any young'uns are reading my blog, a word to the wise: Do NOT let your belongings rule your life! I have probably given away $1-2k worth of stuff over the past two years, but there is still so much left! Unless you have a big house or a lot of kids, you need to establish a rule...something like "nothing new comes into the house unless something goes out"...or unless you already know exactly where the new stuff can be put/stored!

Back to work here. I just keep on pluggin'.
