“I feel sometimes living is digging yourself out of a hole, experiencing the bright relief of being on the surface again, and then slowly sinking into that hole until you must dig your way out again.” VERY THIS.

You have just described me! I recently shamed myself into gathering items that I don’t plan to use again from my closets and shelves. I set up tables in my garage and carried out extra dishes, linens, decor, etc. and placed them on the tables. Then 3 family members became very ill and I, myself, was in the middle of 6 weeks of physical therapy for an injury. Now, a full month later, I’ve done nothing more with the items awaiting me in my garage. My intentions to box up items for donation or sale are still strong--it just may take awhile.

Thank you, Amy. I am--it’s a slow process, but I’m keeping my goal in sight.
