And After Much Confusion

It's been a week of digging through piles of things and hauling off bags to the Goodwill and it still doesn't look like we've made a dent in our clutter. One valuable lesson we have learned is that before, when we had very little space, we believed that that was why our house was messy all the time. But now with three times the space I am seeing the exact same problems we were having before.

Something about human nature, or just our society, causes us to have the need to fill empty space around us, Even when we don't need to. No matter how much space we have we will always have enough junk to fill it because there is always more junk out there.

I'm reminded of a lyric from the show 'Spring Awakening'. "We've all got our junk and my junk is you".
Although out of context that is sort of the way I want to live. Replace my junk with people that I love.

On another note we are going to need to start figuring out which vegetables to plant soon because spring is creeping this way forward. Not sure if that's a real expression but I like the way it sounds. So much to do in a very short amount of time.

 ... creeping this way forward.
