I hope Gary feels better, Gayle!

I got rid of all kinds of clutter before I moved, but after 4 yerars, I have to go through all of the drawers, closets, etc. and redo this. I started with the pantry, and still have stuff to go through. I sold a few things on eBay, and made quite a bit of money! I think I will go through my closet soon. I have another closet in the second bedroom, so I can keep some things for when I gain weight like you do Gayle. We have some great thrift shops around, so getting rid of clothing is not a problem.

The worst room to go through is the second bedroom, which is kind of a den/'office. I have a lot to sort through there, and am not looking forward to that!
I put a lot of pictures, papers, etc. in there when I moved in, and still haven't gone into that stuff.

I have learned not to give everything I don't want away, especially to Jessie. I have found myself being sorry I didn't hang onto a few things like pictures, a couple of pieces of furniture, etc. She won't give anything back either! I have begun putting them down in the basement. There is a good change they will get some mold on them, but mold can be cleaned off, usually!~

I have planned to work on this slowly now that winter is here.
