Cleaning Out

We've been cleaning out and boxing up unneeded and unwanted things around the house, most especially the girls are cleaning out their rooms (I think they have been visited by a team of angels). Surprising how things pile up in what seems like a short amount of time. It feels good to continually simplify and pass things on to someone else. This year, the girls tried a yard sale, staying up past dark and marking everything. Ash & Paul slept in the back of their truck and kept an eye on everything. It sure was windy all night and early morning. Since I tended to give everything away, the girls couldn't get rid of me fast enough before they started making money :)

Isn't it amazing how much "stuff" we accumulate? Bet it feels good to de-clutter and make some extra money. Hope it goes well. I love a good garage sale!
