The first was to attempt to de-clutter closets, bookshelves, cupboards and drawers. After several days of that I had two full trunk loads of usable and in good condition "stuff" (some of which I had forgotten we even had) to donate to the thrift store. I still have the basement to do, a daunting task indeed and one that will best be accomplished in increments. And then there's he garage which will have to wait until spring and much warmer weather.
The second is to send actual hard copy birthday cards this year (and maybe continue to send ecards as well). So I spent a day entering birthdays onto the calendar and...so far so good; cards really ARE being sent in the mail!
And third, as I was moving from closet to closet, I reorganized the supply of yard I had amassed. I really did not want to throw out half used skeins or those with which I could
combine complimentary colors so...I've been crocheting various patterns of adult size (and some smaller) chemo hats whenever I have some "down time" to be donated to the Cancer Center .Here's what I've learned so far: we most always have accumulated some sort of abundance that if shared, could very well benefit someone else who is in need.
