stuff, having too much of
Jun. 16th, 2005 06:33 pmMy littlest sister just graduated (bachelor's) and got a job near me. She and Mom are moving her this weekend using two small cars. It fits in the cars, or she doesn't take it with her.
There's no way I could fit all my stuff in two cars, even discounting the furniture. The books *alone* would probably fill two cars.
It reminds me how much random stuff I have. Did more sorting today. Put more in the 'evaluate' box, for sale or mathoming, etc. It's a little depressing to realize how much stuff I have and don't use. Like my camera. I don't think I've used my film camera in five or six years. I should probably get any film in it developed before it completely degrades.
I'm assuming it will eventually be possible for me to have stuff I use and want, and not find I have a ton of stuff I neither use nor want. And that it will be easier to get rid of things I don't use, haven't used, but might want to use someday once I have a steady income and more money in the bank. Packratting dies hard. :)
It's a goal, at least.
