Your blogs are so easy to read, and you know me, I tend to run on. I was hoping that by putting sub-titles, I'd keep myself from wandering off subject and also make my blog easier to read.<br /><br />Chiropractic won't work under my circumstances. Sure wish it would.<br /><br />Rich and I were pretty compatible with most things although I was more of a night owl than he, but he got up and puttered around if I didn't get up early on the weekends. During the week, we were both up early because we worked, together. I don't really recall being attached to "things" until after he died. I think my memories associated him sitting in a chair or holding something or when we shopped for something. We were both neatniks, so that was never a problem. I never had to pick up after him even once throughout our whole marriage. Sorry you misunderstood my remark. You are about the LEAST ECCENTRIC person I know, Sherry (Sue, too).Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371157074687319596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666490067321750579.post-11456053308045076602012-08-15T11:54:51.343-04:002012-08-15T11:54:51.343-04:00Well I'm not sure if Sue is eccentric but I kn...Well I'm not sure if Sue is eccentric but I know I am. But I don't actually have too much trouble parting with old things. David is the SERIOUS packrat. I really HATE clutter. We go round and round about it. Sometimes I think the most important things in choosing a mate should be "are you a morning or a night person"? Do you like to "collect" thing or "get rid of them". :-))<br /><br />So sorry to hear your back trouble continues and that standing for too long is a problem for you. I don't know much about backs other than my chiropractor was always able to do amazing things for me when I had problems.

Well it wasn't<br />junk when I wanted it for some unknown reason. I am still going through things and emptying out boxes<br />and bags. When I return to Tucson I have more piles to go through. The stuff at home are memories like<br />yours. Not looking foward to that.JOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05658713978278693047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666490067321750579.post-17598372053862970462012-08-14T23:51:31.642-04:002012-08-14T23:51:31.642-04:00good job on emptying the armoire!..one item at a t...good job on emptying the armoire!..one item at a time..and you are not strange just sentimental..it is hard to part with things that hold a special meaning!Sue and Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11436889944386917688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666490067321750579.post-82439517207448742162012-08-14T23:25:40.995-04:002012-08-14T23:25:40.995-04:00AT least you have photos of the things you are re-...AT least you have photos of the things you are re-purposing!! I think letting the birds making use of your flower arrangement is a wonderful idea. The ultimate in recycling. It's hard to part with things because every item represents a memory and a time in our lives that we don't want to lose. I have been going through pictures (the old fashioned ones on paper haha!!)and purging so many of them. Some pictures I cannot even remember where they were taken and I didn't write on the back. How many pictures of sunsets and unnamed waterfall do I need? Not that many!! You are not eccentric, just sentimental like we all are.Donna Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06161069942110860372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666490067321750579.post-49153561648595648312012-08-14T19:09:25.129-04:002012-08-14T19:09:25.129-04:00Odd, how my short term memory leaves a lot to be d...Odd, how my short term memory leaves a lot to be desired, Sandie, but the memories attached to anything that was in my life when Rich was alive is crystal clear. So, I don't feel that I'm getting rid of memories, just things. I just wish my back would allow me to get it all cleaned out and given away so I could get back into my trailer.<br /><br />I liked the simplicity in life when I was in the trailer for 6 months. If I'm ever able, again, the only thing that would make it perfect is if I got the hot water heater so I could have hot showers--I can do without just about anything, but not the shower. Before my back gave me problems, I bought a new Honda 2000 generator figuring that I could have a new hot water with an electric start installed. Now, I couldn't put the generator in the truck if I tried. Maybe I'll get my nerve up to call the surgeon one of these days.<br /><br />Thanks, as always for stopping by, and for saying I was normal. LOL Some would dispute that!Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371157074687319596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666490067321750579.post-66249646136171013342012-08-14T15:58:17.939-04:002012-08-14T15:58:17.939-04:00It is hard to part with memories and things bring ...It is hard to part with memories and things bring back those memories so easily. But I love not having all those things anymore. I still have the old memories if my poor brain can find them, but I want to make new memories without things.
