Here we stand, getting ready to pack the trailer! A quick overview of a one bedroom apartment and we all think we can make it fit. We have packed other trailers before. But we have underestimated! And so the afternoon of packing takes a bit longer that we thought. In the end we find a way and we are ready to head out the following day.
As much as we try to get rid of stuff, more stuff appears. That’s what I see in the basement of my house. I have more boxes to go down. Boxes of music and other paraphernalia from Jill.
It all adds up. Until the adding machine stops. And I realize that something has to go. We realize that subtraction is what we need to do. Things have multiplied way too much and now it’s time to take stock and restock.
I’ve had to do that type of evaluation. I’m expecting a new boarder in a few weeks. My basement suite has a few things (toys and winter clothes and baby play pen) that can either stay in the suite, or be moved to make more room. Saturday is my take stock day. We’ll see what I come up with. Hopefully I won’t add anything more before then!
How easy it is to “get” things, use them or not use them, and they just sit around taking up space. But there is always someone out there who could use them or why not have a big garage sale ?? Good time of year for it. Then one day you will look for something and wonder where it is ??
