You really value your health when you are not feeling well, or fighting something.
The kids have been sick and it seems I always get what they have, or something similar. It doesn't help when your 2 yr old coughs always in your face. We have been washing our hands to where they are so dry and raw just to try and prevent illness.....
Needless to say, trying to get things done around the house to get it ready to put it back up for sale doesn't help- since between work, caring for the kids and overall housework- I tend to burn the candle at both ends. Balance is what I need- but this is a constant battle.
Let alone, the scrapbooking...... I have finally realized I need to schedule the time to make it happen... even if it is just an hour. I am in the process of bringing some things from the basement up that can go into the craft room and as I am doing this, I am weeding thru some things I no longer need- I have a tendency to hold onto stuff... I have all this great paper I need to get some pics on!!! I am also organizing all my pics and putting them in order....
Now speaking of holding onto stuff-- have you seen the show, I believe on A and E channel, called "Hoarders" I find it fascinating.... I know I am not that bad- but it is unbelievable what people keep and why they keep certain things-
I have been going through old cards, letters and other stuff- Would you believe I have letters written from my sister when she was in college??? They are bundled up- I will have to read them for a good laugh- I am sure there are some funny things in there- I am not ready to give those up yet- so I guess I will hoard them away for another day........

Makes me think of my mom .... she enjoyed her keepsakes too and I confess I do the opposite .... have a few selected/lovingly placed in 2 albums that John & Rob will receive someday that I easily can look at and enjoy .... condo living necessitates simpler living. For me it is a good thing.
ReplyDeleteI think there are a certain amount of sentimental things one needs to keep. Yes, there probably is alot one can get rid of. But some "stuff" you just need.
