They say time stops for no man...or woman...boy is that ever true! How to move forward. If you read my other blog dasusmusings you know that my husband passed away at the beginning of last month. It's been one hell of an ordeal! We just now got news that we can finally get the death certificate. All I can say is dying sucks for the survivors. But I digress.
Again...how to move forward. Dave was taking his time de-cluttering, reading every story that he had clipped over the past 17 years. He would read them and then tell me that the stories stayed the same over the years just the players have just changed. I don't have time for that, read or not, out it goes. Boxes and boxes of newspaper clippings and complete newspapers, talk about a fire hazard! I have so much to get rid of it's not funny.
Several of our neighbors said they would come and help me get ready for a garage sale, which I really appreciate but they haven't seen my garage yet...I haven't seen my garage in years. Dave saved every box that every appliance came in. Reasoning...we might have to send it back in the original box. That has happened only once (in 41 years) when my computer died and I had to send it in as part of a class action suite. Also in the garage is a ton of equipment of a friend who passed away that I now have to dispose of.
Clothes...what to do with Dave's clothes. I've decided that I'm going to give them to the homeless shelter. I know they will be appreciated and well used.
So much to do. Stay tuned to see how it goes. I am determined!
"THE COUNTDOWN" This is a blog detailing our getting ready to go on the road. Although it will be awhile before we get there I hope to detail what it takes to achieve that.
