I had to get up early (to take out trash) so I started going through bags of photos. The first one I picked was a cloth bag, so I figured I'd free that up for groceries at least. Lots of pictures of my garden, in better days. Also lots of pictures of my mother and the 4 cats; all gone now except for Little One. About halfway done, when I quit for lunch.

Anyway there are lots of indoor pictures of the cats, and they show how empty the house looked, compared to now. Of course that was before I started to play music so I had 90% fewer LPs/cassettes/CDs, and I had about 60% fewer books. If only I could get back to that level of "clutter".

Pulled down a bunch of books to go to the library's used book sale, but I'm making a list before I box them up. Even so, it's hard to notice any difference. When I walk into the music/computer room, I just feel paralyzed because there's so much to do.
