New Year's Resolution??

OK - here it is - Yes, I 'sorta' made a NY Resolution...I am a pack-rat, really I am and I made a vow that I was going to DE-CLUTTER my house. I am taking one drawer at a time and getting my stuff in order. Do you know what the dictionary says about STUFF - it is trash- to fill in - to cram - yes that is what I do. Every drawer I have is crammed and filled with stuff. Last night I started and to my amazement, I found some really good stuff. One was my birth certificate, three crystal dishes that belonged to my grandmother and an arrow head....I have started putting all the discard stuff together and this should be a good start for a garage sale (what do you think Lindsey?). I am determined to stay on this until I have all my craft stuff together, all my pictures put in order, ready to scrapbook, and most of all, finding lost treasures. I feel last night was good therapy for me and besides, I even moved furniture so that was great. I love rearranging.. It makes the whole room look different.
Getting back to 'stuff'. Try this - one drawer at a time...it really makes you feel good. Our lives are alot like my drawers - they are stuffed with things that we don't need. Last de-clutter our lives as we go. What a wonderful feeling we can have just my getting rid of that stuff that is making us feel full of things in our lives that are not needed... Take care and have a blessed day... 1/23/2009

This is me - 1/21/2009

Hello - I am a MoMo - and I love it! I wanted so badly to be called "Grandmother" but my first grandchild decided that I was a MoMo. It is really strange because I had a MoMo (a rather large woman) and of course my children didn't know her - so when he called me MoMo, I got the picture of a large woman, walking with a cane and her white hair pulled tight upon her head in a knot. This is not me...... I am small, no cane so far, and the hair, well let's just say it maybe white underneath the color of the week. I have four grandchildren, a husband, two grown sons and of course two daughters (in-law). I am approaching the age of 65 next month and still work and have no desire to be at home. Sounds odd, doesn't it. I hear everyone talking about the age of retirement - but again that isn't me. I love my family, I love the time we spend together and I love the time we spend apart. My children are dear to me and hopefully they know it. Iolove God and I love life. It is a precious thing, don't take it lightly. Watch out for more 'word from MoMo.'
