house

so this weekend has been awesome for making progress on the house. we got all the problem areas resolved, even the basement that was a mess is now only half a mess and it's the easy half... the kind of mess that's only a mess because we're always in it.. and the kitchen is still prooty clean despite making beefy saag for dinner tonight. i likes it. the two bedrooms we don't sleep in are empty and the garage is pretty good. so we only have a few things left; bark, professional cleaning and a couple of ornaments on the kitchen cabinets. i'm really happy about how little is left, and so it'll be nice to wrap the rest of it up this next week and a half, and see how it goes. it feels good to have made this progress. really good. that's all i have for this week.

I hate the clutter in my life. I need to cull.

it feels really good to get stuff out of the house.. especially the garbage.. what i regret is not doing this years ago. living with less stuff is nice.

You know what I'm NOT looking forward to? Unpacking the stuff we DID keep. But my mom says we'll be surprised at how much stuff we unpack and then promptly throw/give away, so at least we can know that we have another big purge ahead of us. And as long as we do at least as much purging as binging, maybe our new house will stay pretty. Because you know what they say...

I'm with cat on this. I'm a purge when packing, purge when unpacking kind of guy. Megan's not quite as much, but as I move I just keep wanting to get rid of stuff.

We've got a book rule now: If we haven't read it in the last couple years and we can't imagine reading it in the next couple years, it's got to go! So we're down to, erm, four full bookcases from four OVERfull bookcases.
