hehehe, emotionally organizing, and physically. My son told me that if you get you physical house in order and get rid of the clutter. Then the rest kinda falls into place. The more I find I can live without the better my mind is. It's like with every little things that goes in the sale box alittle weight goes too. How weird is that?


Things I thought I couldn't live without. I know I can now. Things I've had for years I know now it's time to move on. I'm finding that out emtionally too. ( no shrink invovled) hehehehe Just the ever loving help of the Almighty. Life can be simple if you let go and let God take over. Don't hold on to troubles you are not in control. I have a saying in my office It read "Good Morning, This is GOD! I will handling all your problems today. I will not need your help-So have a good day" Simple but true.

I know we have many Cuties with many faithes but what ever you believe in do it with your whole heart and soul. Give in completely because that is the only way you will find peace.

OK enough preaching I have to finish putting my sewing books up and I have to make a big sister tshirt for Audrey Love you all God Bless you all wit the peace I know He can give. Have agreat day Ronny

I'm like Martine only worse, I can't remember how many times I moved house, but it meant for a good clean out every time I moved.
Now I'm with Ray (he has lived in this house for over 30 years) and i feel so overwhelmed with all the clutter I can't think straight, I hate it!

I'm looking forward to moving back to my place as I know we will be having a big cleanout.

I agree with your son, a cluttered home means a cluttered mind, it is just no good for anyone to be controlled by their possessions.

Oh, on a different matter, I took 2 of the wigs down to the cancer clinic and they were very grateful for them so I'm passing on their sincre gratitude to you.

hugs n roses, M

We have collected over 43 years of stuff,and I mean stuff. We have taken 4 truck loads to the Goodwill, and we still have stuff. We asked our 3 kids, if there was anything they wanted to just take it. We would never miss it, they don't want anything. So I guess inorder to declutter we will have to make more trips to the Goodwill. They say if you haven't used it in a year ,you don't need it or miss it. We will have to get busy.

For the first 15 years of our marriage we moved once every 2 - 3 years. Did not have that much clutter. Since then we have been living in the same house for umpteen years. Now you should see the attic - or rather not. I'm trying to get it cleared out, but it's a slow process as there's no impending move... I wish you good luck with your clearance and sincerely hope the theory - house in order, mind in order - works.
