The Superior Express -

This weekend I worked on getting the house picked up and organized. This required moving a few items we are currently not using out to the garage. I have this fun game I like to play; it’s called how many things can a person stuff into a tiny area before it all comes crashing down on her head!

I was also looking for a flower pot. It’s a high-stakes game of Jenga to remove any one object from the pile. I found the pot at the bottom of a bunch of boxes. Only God knows why boxes were stacked on a flower pot, but the flower pot remains at the bottom of the stack. I will look elsewhere for another.

As we are slowly but surely moving into our house, we are doing away with many items we no longer use or need. So they get stuffed in the shed until we are able to have a yard sale. The problem with this is once stuffed in the shed, I can no longer get to the items that I do want and need. The only thing I am really missing at the moment is my corkscrew. A drywall screw and a pair of pliers work all right, but I’d rather open my wine the fancy way.

I am doing my best to take a minimalist approach as we move into this house. Over the years, I have collected and kept just about everything hoping that someday I would have a place to use it. What I am finding is that over the years, my taste in decor has changed and that years in storage have ruined much of my precious junk. So I am starting anew with new junk! LOL!

I am hoping to be done with the collecting and saving, although when George found my stash of cords and tried to throw them out, I about tackled him. I’m getting there. It just takes time. LOL! X’s & O’s.
