apparently the only schmuck who stayed in on a Saturday night.
*grin*
I haven't done anything I said I wanted to do, nothing is moved.
Well, maybe.
I dragged all of my books out of the closet. I put the storage boxes into it. I went out and bought some office file boxes, about 18 of them. They are not enough, I still have about a dozen shopping bags of books.
*sigh*
Collected from when I had the time and money to devour books, they represent a time in my life when nothing was ever wrong, where my biggest problem was getting my grandmother off my back long enough about homework to watch Benny Hill and wrestling.
I'm loathe to let them go.
I want to catalogue them before I try and ditch them. I want to sell them in blocks, on Ebay or somewhere. The fact is most of them are old, and the bookstores won't want them. I have a few places I COULD sell them, but *shrug*. I don't want to just toss them. I want them to have homes, like pets. I want to reread some old favorites, and put them in the safety of MY bookcases.
I know it's silly, but *shrug*
I'll have to track down a cheap camera, I juts really think my best bet is to start sorting through my crap HERE, and get rid of it. Then, start bringing things from my storage unit and sell them, or toss them. I think I can do this, I should dedicate one day a week to doing Just That.
But, today was that day for me, and I didn't even start until well after 4 PM, because I was unmotivated. And I should continue to clean, I may. I have furniture to juggle tho, and it involves the computer desk. I just don't think my bookcases are moving. I don't have the room to do everything. I don't just want to start throwing things out, my whole pack rat mentality just won't let me.
Good news is, I'm alone tonight. No mother to see the devastation of her living room, at least what it was a few hours ago *grin*
I need another 2 or 3 sets of boxes, these are a perfect shape to stay in storage. If I have to, I'll haul all of it over to my unit. I would LOVE to get rid of it. Maybe what I should do is take Ruthie up on her offer of storage in her basement. I pay $77 a month, and I'd MUCH rather pay her (and pay her less) But then I will have LESS access to it. I guess if I put what I KNOW I won't need into the basement, like my furniture and apartment thingies, that might be OK.
OK, one thing at a time. Get a camera, take pictures for sale. I'm going to put up pics and give local netgoths a shot at things before I put them up on Ebay. Maybe save some on shipping. Then I just need to be ruthless. I love some of my dresses but you know I Don't WEAR them, they can get me money. They have to go.
