So lately I have been thinking that I don't want to be one of those old women who dies with a house full of useless junk and then have to have people resent having to sort through it and clean the place up to tidy up my affairs. OK, so I know I am young but if you don't think of these things when you are young you end up like the old woman in the last sentance. So, I hired a couple of teenagers last week and I worked alongside them and we cleaned and organized the garage. Then, last night, Marcia and I cleaned out the pantry. Man, it feels so good and I have made a commitment to myself that it will NOT get out of hand. I don't want to buy junk we don't need.

Pretty clean space!
I have decided that I will do this activity with every room in the house - then things will be orderly and all we will have to do is the upkeep! Why didn't I start this when I was less busy?

Nicely organized food storage

Want to come and clean out my garage? hehe...nah, it isn't that bad!
Good for you. Glad to see you got it done.

Congrats, I do my purging slowly so James doesn't catch on.
We don't have that much stuff, but James always gets feisty when I start to suggest that something has to go, even things that he hasn't used or worn since we got married 5+ years ago.
