So, goodness...where has the time gone? Oh, I know!!!! It's been flittered away in a sea of decluttering and family life with 10 people. I feel so free......but still not done. Oh no, dear folks...I have been grabbing a pile and taking it to my sorting room...sorting it, getting rid of half, and then organizing the other half. Rinse, and repeat...It's that bad, people!!!!!!
I have put so much crap in boxes that my garage is full, and now my exercise and laundry room is full. I am being ruthless, and it is amazing just how much stuff we have. I think I mentioned this before, but when one has 8 curriculums for 1st graders and only 2 potential first graders moving up, something is the matter. I guess I thought I would just keep having kid after kid after kid....and maybe someday I will again, but for now...I need it gone! And then if I DO need it, I will buy it then...not store it now.
I will be filthy rich with all the garage sale money, and ebay money~~ Ha! I wish, but it will get a bunch...and plus, I won't be hit with late fees for this lost book, or that late bill...or have to buy another pair of scissors because I can't find mine and I got tired of looking.
So, that is where I am....keep praying Joann. I know I have been quiet here and on your blog, but I have to do this....the longer my husband stays home, the more money we lose on jobs. But you know what??? We are getting along better and the kids get their daddy home. There is somethign to say about the biblical verse that talks about taking a sabbath the seventh year. This is his seventh year. Coincidence?? I think not!
Love ya...thanks for always checking on me!

Thank you Joann! You are a very special friend. I feel bad that I am not commenting on blogs, or sending emails...but I have GOT to get this done. Thanks for praying and understanding....and for being a faithful friend.

Doesn't it feel wonderful to get rid of all that stuff. I know I feel better when my house is more organized. You go girl!
I'm keeping your family in my prayers regarding your hubby's job. Enjoy it now while he is home.
God Bless,
Julie
Oh, Julie....it DOES feel wonderful! My life has been out of order for so long, and it has taken a toll on everyone. It's amazing how something as simple as how your house functions matters in everything.
Thanks for praying. We are enjoying the sabbatical!
