Subject: RE: BS: Spring into Fall: Sept. 2009 declutter
Did two loads of laundry and went through a small plastic bag from yesterday's closet foray. Go figure, it had some special rocks, hair comb and barrette, a screwdriver, small wrench, and an old watch in it. I think it was last minute packing during some move.:-) Called my back East daughter about some small things of hers still here. She wants them, so will get them ready to send out.

I am going to get Rog to help me videotape everything I have that is meaningful and send it to her so she remembers what I have and can let me know if she wants any of it "someday." Some of it will go to her before I pass away, if she wants it. I've already done some fo that with her siblings. I keep asking her what she wants and she really doesn't remember what I had nor seen newer stuff since we left in 1993, so a video may just help with that. The other two are here and can get their bids in early.*bg*

I am amazed at how much more energy I have now that I am off one of the meds they had me on to help with muscle cramping and to get to sleep. It seems evident, now, that it was causing depression, not just physical, but mental/emotional due to the physical, along with other nasty side effects including a sort of palsy, handfuls of hair loss, and oedema of my lower legs and feet which the docs just couldn't explain. I am so grateful I have the internet and can research stuff myself! Anyway, it is all much better now and I am eager to get back to decluttering!

Tomorrow morning my Rog is going to mow the front lawn, then we will finish the driveway. There's just some bits and pieces, plus some of his work related stuff which needs to be put back in his truck.
