CHRISTMAS IS COMING


Tore apart my Xmas cupboard even though I need to piece and quilt for 2 grandkids before Xmas...put it off until I stay up all night to complete...
''yeah,yeah,that's the ticket.''
AND
I'm glad I did.
I purged gift items languishing and way past their prime.They were calling out to me. ''Gift me this year,gift me this year.''
I was strong and into the PURGE GARAGE SALE KIJIJI EBAY boxes they went.
YIPPEE this is starting to be fun.

HELP from books ?


As I work at Chapters Book Store, I scanned the ORGANIZATION section for help.
(Un)fortunately it's smack up against KNITTING SEWING SCRAPBOOKING etc so was a 'bit' distracted.hmmm will I ever get through this?
One book caught my eye though,
Its All Too Much: An Easy Plan for Living a Richer Life with Less Stuff
by Peter Walsh and it has a follow-up workbook.
Would buying this book just be another way to bring more STUFF into my already jam packed house ?

I am a sewer, knitter, crocheter, quilter,painter, beader,crafter of all things textiles-paper-leather and grandmother of 13 ,all of whom like to make things with ''stuff''.
I have a LOT of ''stuff''.
