Always Purging

Too much stuff!

Constantly purging.

Yesterday I gathered 5 more large boxes of stuff to be donated.

I took photos of some of the keepers, just to make the day more tolerable.

 Whatever I can fit into the top of this cabinet is what I can keep.

It's odds and ends transfer ware and pretty bits of china and such.

 Any overflow gets donated.

 If I bring in anything new, something old has to go.

 I rarely use this stuff, but just can't seem to part with it.

I guess I'll always be purging.

Just too much stuff.

What? No Dish Washer?

After only 8 short years my dishwasher "shit the bed".

Have you ever heard that expression?

I heard one of the kids say it a few years ago about a car that gave up.

I swear, ( I do swear now and then) that I laugh every time I hear that.

I thought you might think it's funny as well.

I hope I didn't offend anyone by using the S word.

I suppose it won't kill me to wash a few dishes, in fact, I really don't mind at all.

I did notify Tommy, my husband, he's in charge of buildings and grounds, so I do believe this falls under the category of buildings. I'm house keeping and decorating, and I know it doesn't fall under one of those categories. He says he's looking, but I'm pretty sure he's "Gone Fishing" to avoid the upcoming, all girl, tea party that's coming up.

Speaking of grounds, I do care for certain portions of the yard as I believe they fall under the category of decorating. That being said...here's the first blooming plant for this year in the garden outside my kitschy kitchen window.

And these are the first seeds to grow this year.

Cat Grass.

It's like having a chunk of your lawn in a flower pot.

Thanks for stopping in.
