Look forward to seeing what you do when you pare things down.<br /><br />Love Oct. and Nov. yard sales.

I think my perspective might be different from others.<br /><br />I've made a vow--to think twice before collecting any more stuff, and to throwing out stuff frequently rather than waiting for a move. <br /><br />I love a makeover. Keep to it and post some pic's when done. <br /><br />peace~elaineelaine @ peace for the journeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09675745465728814736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688951980399020435.post-45109244728027596862010-09-10T23:10:50.648-04:002010-09-10T23:10:50.648-04:00I have been sick in bed since last Sunday (still n...I have been sick in bed since last Sunday (still not well) and that has given me time to think. I realized that I need to attack my house and clean it up. It's not so much what you can see, but what you can't. Magazines overflowing in the master bedroom, many "organized" in baskets, craft supplies that I probably won't ever use, and stuff that I can't part with. Problem for me is that too many times, I've gotten rid of something only to find several months down the line that I need it. On our disability income, replacement isn't always an option. So a lot of prayer will have to accompany the purging, whenever I get well. We'll see how things go.Ginnyhttp://ginnyscrafts.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688951980399020435.post-53731249507556016432010-09-10T21:44:14.546-04:002010-09-10T21:44:14.546-04:00I agree a BRAVE lady!

SO, every summer and winter, I have to swap things from the attic to the closet. As I go through them, If I didn't wear it that season... out it goes! That helps me to keep that part of my life under control anyway. You were very brave to show pictures of your "crowded situation"! You will feel such a sense of accomplishment when it is all neat and tidy. Can't wait to see the pix!Miss Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15912779661977359332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688951980399020435.post-22808953819030335532010-09-08T17:30:40.929-04:002010-09-08T17:30:40.929-04:00Just found your blog - best wishes with your close...Just found your blog - best wishes with your closet project. I look forward to seeing your after photos.<br /><br />I have found when you lose something - that is the time to create a lost list. This list can be made on a 3 x 5 card and hold the "lost" things that you are searching for. Most of us can have one or two and feel comforted that there are only a few items out of sight. <br /><br />The Lost List is a great reminder of things lost. The Lost List becomes a cause for celebration when things are actually found and crossed off. <br /><br />TerryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688951980399020435.post-81598299088888477042010-09-08T13:21:53.793-04:002010-09-08T13:21:53.793-04:00Fortunately for you, you started well ahead of you...Fortunately for you, you started well ahead of your sale time.
