I just cannot resist posting another shot of the snow...I have a feeling we won't be seeing any like this for a while to come. It is supposed to be in the 50's by the weekend. I cannot wait...I am just so anxious to go outside without having to wonder will I need a jacket. I can't wait to sit outside to read....or to have breakfast on the front porch. Just so many things to look forward to.
*****************
I am slowly but surely working on getting rid of things I don't use, can't wear, or just no longer want. I keep slimming down on the number of books I am keeping. I think I am about down to the bone in that regard. There might be a few more, but very, very few. Most of the ones that are left are treasured....I have several photography books that I cannot bare to part with though I seldom look at them any more...one is about worn out literally.
Then I have my Alaska books...can't get rid of them. Nor my diaries and journals of people traveling west by wagon train...or some of them are just journals of people/immigrants after they are living there. I would love to have some of these in digital format...specially Sod & Stubble by John Ise and Grass of the Earth by Aagot Raaen. Even though I have the physical copy, I would love to have them on my kindle.
Back to de-cluttering...I keep telling myself if I get rid of just one thing a day, it will help. But usually, when I go to find one thing, I find a few more. There have been days when I didn't discard anything, but still my sister-in-law and I are working on this idea together...we report in to each other almost every day and it really helps to keep me motivated.
