Stuff, Stuff, stuff

I am really tired of stuff!  I guess I was thinking about it and the clutter is starting to really bother me so I am thinking of things I can get rid of so the house will be easier for me to keep clean.  I do use a lot of the stuff, but sometimes it is just not worth it.  I have a lot of books, I read a lot of books, but I also have books I will never read to sell, that have not sold in length of time, so I got some of them together to get rid of on Freecycle. I   advertised a few books and CD’s on a couple of places and I think I sold a few. I hope so anyhow!  I was surprised to look at a couple of books that I was thinking about getting rid of were worth more than a few dollars, so I may try to sell those, I am not sure.  I think I will be going through clothes next, but I should go through my fabric also. I sold some of my fabric as it was beautiful, but I had no time to sew it and if I used it all, I would have too many clothes. <p>  I am going to really, really cut down on stuff. I also think once we get the shed painted, we are emptying it and going through everything in there and organizing it so we can actually use it better. I am thinking if the painting works so we do not have to buy a shed, then I am going to buy one of those tight seal Rubbermaid things that I can put into the shed for winter clothing storage, boots etc. I am so tired of trying to store it all inside. <p> I have been having a lot of trouble sleeping lately, it is really weird, I wake up and am dead tired and cannot sleep. Then when it is time to get up, I can’t sleep more, but cannot get up!  It is pretty horrible. <p> Oh, I am getting rid of some yarn too! I like crocheting, but I have really not done much of it in a long time. The boys cut up a bunch of the yarn I had, or tangled it and some lady on freecycle wants to learn how to crochet so wants scraps and stuff. I figure it is cheap enough; I can replace it if I am really going to do a project.  Plus, it is will empty out a desk drawer so I can organize school supplies better. <P>  I found some really interesting books I own, I did not know I did in going through my bookshelves! I also found there are some I wish I had for the boys.  I would like to get more Rod and Staff and Pathway books. Pathway books are cheap, so I can do those eventually, but R&S is expensive sometimes. They add up anyhow! <p>
