I too am guilty of those pleasures of a good find & purchasing stuff. My husband laughs at me as I get things ready to donate & comments you purchase from there...then you give them your stuff. It's a circle of supporting our local economy. lol<br />I've shredded a bunch just getting ready for tax time, your shredder looks fast & great to reuse as packaging.<br />There's a saying I heard & like - Live Simple So Others My Live.

I have kind of been doing the same thing - slowly purging stuff that I know I don't need or probably won't ever get to. I have tried to downsize my crafting and stick with just a few things that I really enjoy doing such as quilting, cross stitch, occasional crochet, and rug hooking. I have stuff in boxes in the attic for making jewelry as well as making cards. I put them there because I don't know if once I retire I'll have the time to devote to them or not. If not - they'll be going to the Goodwill. Boy, I'd love to have that paper shredder! Monday you'll be heading to your daughter's! That will be a good change for you and an exciting time! Looking forward to seeing pictures of your new grandbaby and your little guy!

I am glad you are doing that it just makes life seem easier. <br />I always manage to get more things done when I know I am going to be away. <br />Your trip is almost here. <br />I am glad you get to go do something and there will be babies to hold.

Giving the good stuff to a local thrift shop can help someone else build their stash! Ha!<br />Brad and Kami are going to come when it gets warmer and we're going to tackle the attic, though they are also lovers of junk and usually end up taking a lot of stuff home with them. They don't have room for it either.<br /><br />Have a good weekend!weaverpathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16533327863909312395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-54013338685069006882013-02-22T08:18:32.064-04:002013-02-22T08:18:32.064-04:00busy as always!It always feels good to clean out. ...busy as always!It always feels good to clean out. <br />Cathyacorn hollowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10503414190541111706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-11484913848550534192013-02-22T07:26:41.093-04:002013-02-22T07:26:41.093-04:00Well, we are on the same mission, because I have b...Well, we are on the same mission, because I have been downsizing & defluttering too.

Love that shredder too. I'm trying to declutter but it's a slow process..you're my hero! Your car story reminded me of a car story of my own. I had a fairly new car and my son accidentally damaged the back bumper on the rubber that covered the bumper..anyway, when I was quoted a price of $800 to fix it I was appalled...why so much I asked? He said it would take atleast 8hrs to fix it..I told him I could take out a gallbladder in 25min. and he couldn't even fix a tiny scratch quicker than 8hrs? I declined and lived with the scratch until we sold the car!yayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12047536332780197024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-64653288837685987082013-02-21T22:53:56.976-04:002013-02-21T22:53:56.976-04:00Isn't that KIm a sweet gal; beautiful and such...Isn't that KIm a sweet gal; beautiful and such a thoughtful gift......<br /><br />You have been a busy girl; can you come to my house for a few days.....All kidding aside it does feel good to get rid of all that stuff we don't use anymore....I've started but I have lots more to do...You are encouraging me to get with it...Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05977147960900342156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6876827638819064500.post-49802982101270505242013-02-21T22:34:06.173-04:002013-02-21T22:34:06.173-04:00Deeeeecluttering... yessir! good for the mind ... ...Deeeeecluttering... yessir! good for the mind ...
