Cold snap here in the south, looking like a low of 19 tonite. Thank goodness back up to around 60 in a day or so. Not a fan of cold weather, don't know how you North & East friends survive those awful winters! Wanting to move even further south in a couple more years so even less cold to deal with.
Still organizing and putting up shelves in the basement. For once in my life I am going to know where everything is. The two of us have a tendency to clutter. Next thing I know it's starting to look like its sliding towards hoarderville and the trash men hate me for weeks cause of all the extra crap at the curb that can't be donated or sold.
I seem to want less as I get older. We spent all these years collecting and all the sudden so little of it means jack shit anymore. I guess the challenge was finding and collecting it? A tendency to overbuy at thrift stores and flea markets at times.....
I will never get over my music obsession and that means collecting all the music and memorabilia to go with it. Music is my life and the shows I attend & music I collect are the biggest joys of my life. I love books and have a fairly large library - things like this I will never tire of....music is my life's passion.
But some other stuff like clothes, accessories, kitchen items and cook books (because I thrive on cooking), gadgets bought and rarely used - I've been gathering this kind of stuff for weeks now in each room. Kind of like a snake shedding its skin. We have too much stuff - its a blessing and a curse.
I finally realize I don't need so much....
In better news, I decided to indoor winter garden - haven't grown in a few years now and it's time to devote my green thumb skills to some veggies and STUFF.
Magic beans in damp paper towels - Durbin Poison, Blue Cheese, strawberry cough. Old school faves.
Ready to get my garden groove on again!
