Treasure Your Treasures

This old gal…

Loves stuff…attaches feelings to stuff…relives memories with stuff…and has been packing up stuff…for a week… it’s the thing these days…to have all personal items…all clutter…removed from the house…when trying to sell…

So box we did…all those prized possessions…coveted memories…snuggled up and hidden away…the house now down to bare bones…

But funny thing…this old gal…and her Mr…kind of like this sparse look…it’s open and light…and freeing…
And good thing…because New House…is tiny…and has very little room for stuff…

It’s funny…how life prepares you for next steps…our winter away…showing this old gal that home is where the heart is…making way for this new move…

The freedom from stuff…preparing us…for paring down a bit…saving those that are dearest to our hearts…and giving others…a new life…with someone new…

But easier said than done…cuz I know…those treasures of mine…will look up at me like those toys in Toy Story…and say pick me…love me…

And they will get their way…
​
And this husband of mine…agrees…
