But then I am just moving the stuff within the confines of my house and not out the front door...which is where it needs to go, lol. I considered making a few pillows with the blazer, but we already have a matched set of 4 in the family room (and four identical ones in storage for when the first set wears out), a pillow I made in the family room and 3 pillows I made on the futon in my Expanded Sewing Room. I don't really need any more pillows. I did keep a Christmas tablecloth that I had originally planned to get rid of. I can easily make table toppers and napkins for my kitchen and as gifts. I can also use the pretty fabric to make wine bottle covers for Christmas gifts. I did, however, save all of the buttons, lol. They are easier to store and I can see lots of future uses for them.

Even when I couldn't do things around here, he still could. Until the fall, that is. Now neither one of us is capable of much. The thought of sorting through this house five or ten years from now, when we are that much older and maybe even less capable, has spurred us to start now. I am still finding it a bit difficult to be as brutal as I really should be, but I find myself planning a "step" process. I will toss what I don't even have to think about the first time through the house. Each subsequent purge should whittle away more and more. Less "stuff" means less upkeep and more personal time!Jusmom1https://www.blogger.com/profile/03276963040817081405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-999210371475734537.post-20495817073504213372014-06-22T22:36:09.010-04:002014-06-22T22:36:09.010-04:00I am pretty beat right now.
