Clearing out the MacDonald's
It has been so hard to get back into the blogging habit. Not to mention that we have been having numerous computer problems (Ugh! It seems like all laptop computers hate me!) But it's another rainy day, the kids are taking their naps and Jaidyn's at school. So I thought I'd take this time to post something.
I have been attempting to clear out and clean up this month (early spring cleaning), so today I plan on posting a few items on craigslist and Ebay. The only problem is my camera has come up missing, I have a problem with putting things in a safe place (away from kids and pets) and then not remembering where that safe place was. So as soon as I am able to get over my alzheimers I will do just that. I am anxious to downsize and get rid of things, as well as organize. I have decided that we just have too much stuff, over 17 years of marriage, 1 child, 5 foster children and lots of relatives that feel like for some reason they need to pass things on to you, we have managed to accumulate a garage full of stuff that we never use. Granted that some of it is just junk, but there is quite a bit of stuff that most people would find useful, just not us! So I'm going to try my hand at Ebay, Craigslist and then see where we end up, if there's still quite a bit left then I guess we're going to have to give in and have the dreaded yard sale! UGH! And if there's still no luck, then the rest will be hauled off to Goodwill, or maybe we'll just haul it all back to the family members that thought it was a good idea to give it to us in the first place, and maybe this would stop the constant giving to the MacDonald family. Not to sound ungrateful or anything but we truly are just fine and are in need of NOTHING more.
So off to work I go, to clear and clean the clutter. Wish me luck!
