Clutter
I am digging my way into the recesses of my closet to get out the Halloween decorations. I feel like an archeologist or a psychologist as I dig through the first layer and am stalled by a box full of photographs. Oh-oh. Yes, I have been stuck on this box for an hour now and have made a mess all over my floor. Trying to dwindle down my pile of CRAP, but so far the only thing I have thrown away is newspaper clippings of pilot ex-boyfriend and a few stray Christmas envelopes. [sigh] And now the room is a mess. I got stuck on latest ex-boy's Christmas card & pictures. Do I keep 'em or chuck 'em? Leaning towards the chuck, but may store them for another cycle (hey, look at how long it took me to chuck pilot boy's newspaper clipping-- they're dated 1994!!!)? Also starting to look at the pics of ex-hub. Do I keep them for C-Man and let him toss them out or should they get the heave-ho? Dunno, can't make up my mind, so here I am...
Was digging through the old photos and ran across my pics from my last trip to visit Sis & Bill. It was before C-Man was born. He was there, although he was not his own person -- 4 months from being born. Can I say he's been to Florida? Hmmm, I guess it depends on who you ask. I would say no, because he has no experiences there, except for digesting gator nuggets (he eats, what I eat right?). I can't wait to go back. Yes I am already formulating my next several vacations in my mind. Airfare is still high, but on the decline, as is gas prices for my car -- Chevron was $3.69! Far better price than $4.39 (the highest I paid during that insane period).
I have also been wanting to scan some of the photos. I feel like a lazy bum, because Chris managed to scan in a bunch of old pics that make me just laugh. We look so young.
See? Clutter in my mind and on my floor. Managed to get some out of my head, now back to the floor. Most of those pics will probably end up back in the box. So much for getting rid of stuff. Wish me luck...
My mood: nostalgic
