Y...Thanks for reading Jagoda and leavng a comment. Yes, we did a lot of purging when we moved from CA nine and a half years ago. However, towards the end it all got so tedious that we were throwing things into boxes just to get the job done. This is after I spent about two months organizing eveeryhting myself ith no help (throwing out, donating, and packing what was left into neatly labeled boxes so I would know where to find everything once we arrived at our new place.<br /><br />I think there are some things I'll never get rid of and it can be dealt with after I'm gone. I have a large box of keepsakes from my five years in Alaska that will still be around as long as I am. That box has been moved with me to five different states so far.<br /><br />It is going to be extremely hard to get rid of some of my fabric stuff too, as well as my books. I imagine I'll keep more of it than my husband would like, but I'm not dead yet and I certainly can't afford to buy that stuff now while living on a fixed income. I imagine there will be a MAJOR conflict coming over that. But it is what it is.<br /><br />I probably have too many interests, but doing things keeps my mind sharper than it would be if I never wrote, read, sewed, or did other crafts. I'm not likely to quit any of that unless I get too feeble to care.<br /><br />My baby's nose is running like mad today, so I hope all the stuff is finally going away. She's been sick since August. That's a long time in a cat's life.<br /><br />SunniSunnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12671891696662548892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4106218623971866390.post-33543625195547085962013-11-14T09:49:07.098-07:002013-11-14T09:49:07.098-07:00Having moved across state lines three times in the...Having moved across state lines three times in the last five years, I feel your pain. I thought I had purged a lot of stuff on the first move, which I had, only to find there was more to do the second and third times. I'm staying put for a while now. Glad your baby is starting to feel better.Jagodahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18352786929899391940noreply@blogger.com
