Didn’t do much else this week except work, work, work, work, work around the house, sorting, cleaning, organizing, trying to get ready for the yard sale I have planned for May 4-5, as we try to clear out thirty-plus years of accumulated stuff. It may be an arduous task, but the parameters are quite simple: if it doesn’t fit in the Trailrider trailer it doesn’t go. If we don’t need it, it doesn’t go. If it adds too much weight to our already “nearly at the limit of our truck’s tow capacity” weight, it doesn’t go, etc. We survived quite comfortably all winter, and my list of “things to get from home” was actually quite short, and consisted of a couple of very lightweight things, like a yoga mat and a program disk. We’ve added a couple of tools that might be useful (we’ll see soon enough), but otherwise have been pretty brutal in our selections. I remember seeing a Facebook post a while back that said, “Just think. All this clutter used to be money,” and when I see how much money we spent over the years on stuff we literally used just one, it seems ridiculous. What else is ridiculous is the number of the same thing I’ve found. A bunch of tools and hardware, some still in the package that never got used, it makes me crazy. Can’t wait to get this job done and get out of here!
