No rest for the weary.
We are finding ourselves quite weary these days both mentally and physically. Tonight marked the final destruction of the attic, where everything we didn't want to deal with in the past was placed. Again with the hand down the ladder, move to the landing and carry the rest of the way down. Sorting is almost as heavy, there comes a point where items you once prized as useful or interesting become an annoying thing you have to dispose of. Living day to day, you don't really think about how much we accumulate living in a house. When you finally move stuff seems to multiply out of the closets and storage areas like so many demonic rabbit hoards. We will both be glad to have this part over.

Having moved every year for the last 5 years of my life, I can relate like no other. You would think that each move would have dwindled our things down to just the very basics, but that is not so. In fact, it seems that we gain things each year.
ReplyDeleteI am glad to have read your posts up to here. This summer, we are purging our junk and starting fresh. I think the hardest part will be deciding on which toys our little darling does not *need* any longer. :(
