Until the dust settles
So this is how it is. I am in a place of limbo and unable to properly feed my blogling child. Today is Wednesday, not Monday or Friday, but I happen to be near a computer. I am in the middle of moving my household belongings from one state to another. My life is presently in boxes.
I plan to come back and post again before I head West but it may be on yet another non-bookend day; Friday might be a little quirky for me.
In the meantime, may I suggest to you that you clean one closet, or one drawer, or empty one box in your basement or garage today. And then do it again every other day for the rest of the summer. This is something you will not regret doing. I am waist-deep in stuff I forgot I had, don’t need and could’ve passed along to someone else.
Moving is hard work, emotionally and physically. But it’s refreshing — in a bracing kind of way — to reduce the volume of your possessions. The weight of having so much isn’t keenly felt until you begin to rid yourself of some of it.
Until another near-a-computer day. . .
