purge
Purge Purge Purrrrrrrrrge! This is all I've done with every free minute of this weekend. Friday night after we visited my Aunt and Uncle that were in town, we put Brenner to bed and headed downstairs to tackle my garage. We spent hours sorting, tossing and re-organising. When we were done I had a nice heaping pile of stuff in the middle of my garage.
Yesterday before meeting up with my Aunt and Uncle I went through the rest of my bins and boxes deciding what stays and what goes. I really thought it was going to be harder than it really was to say goodbye to the things that I've had for years, things that I've never needed or thought about. In the afternoon while my Uncle took Brenner to the store to buy him anything he wanted, I rested with my Aunt and caught her up with the wedding plans and the new house. After a great visit and dinner at Adam's we said our goodbyes and watched my Aunt and Uncle drive away. Brenner misses them already!
Today while Adam packed up his own house I spent most the morning loading up my car and making trips to the Opportunity Foundation. Six trips to be exact. Even Brenner got the purging bug and went through all his baskets and toy closet sorting out what he doesn't play with anymore. I was impressed. He had two tidy piles made; one for the garbage and one for the Foundation. During one of the trips I somehow tweaked my back. It hurts and hurts bad. I'm currently sitting on Adam's couch and heating pad waiting for the Advil to kick in. The boys went out for lunch and sure hope they bring home a doggy bag, I'm starving.
