I am wound like a I DON'T KNOW what. A three day alarm clock? Not sure where that saying came from. Doing my best to unwind and fall asleep. I will take an afternoon nap in my grey recliner for sure later in the day. I have been working on gathering THINGS...STUFF. The living room floor is covered with boxes and the Carriage House is full of big pieces of furniture.
AFTER this week-end, I will re-evaluate the things and decide where they will go. I know that after I go through more boxes in the basement that there will be another round of purging, but for now...this is a very good feeling to have. It feels healthier to me to have order than so many messes sitting about or unattended. A deep breath and a sigh. Pat myself on ze back and call it good.
God is helping me change. For the better. Thinning out stuff and downsizing for the future is an ongoing adventure. I believe that I no longer need so much STUFF. Why oh why oh why have I had such a bad habit of collecting this and that? I believe that I am finally coming to terms with what we really need to live a comfortable LIFE with not having so much clutter tying us down. I can finally turn loose of more STUFF. Praise the Lord.
Hubby worked for hours disassembling an old STEELCASE TANKER DESK from the basement. It is a hunk of metal. HEAVY. He figured it out and this mammoth beast is no longer in the basement.
I remember when we bought this mid-century retro desk and credenza when we lived in the Tulsa, Oklahoma area. Our son adopted it and took a liking to it. It became his property and it wasn't until a short time ago that this desk returned to us and took up residency in our basement.
It has sat in the corner of the basement here and we have not used it for the longest time. So out of the basement she arose. Such a big and sturdy desk that I believe someone else can put to use. Praying for the right person to take this hunk of metal home or to an office where it will be used and appreciated.
