I meant to hold this garage sale next week, but I can only walk around the heap of stuff in the dining room for so long and tomorrow is it. The extra stuff is going! Some of it is good stuff - even a few precious things. But if I haven't used it and have no intention of using it, why should I keep it?
It has finally dawned on me that even if I don't have something that reminds me of a person or event, I'll still have those memories. And if I lose the memories, senility or whatever, then having the thing won't necessarily bring the memory back. I don't have to keep dusting the items to keep the memories.
The heat seems to have broken - at least a little bit. For that, I am very grateful.
Thanks for visiting with me,
Kathi
