This is one of my favorite Greenfields

It is amazing how this task that loks so deprseeing and daunting at first is bringing you and your friend so much joy and contentment. It also got me thinking about my stuff. I guarantee you that no one can figure out head from tails of what is to keep and what to throw away. Still it is good to take a look at one's surrounding and belongings and decide what is important in life.

I guess we're all squirrels ...
one way or another. I definitely am one.

Re: sam444
Many thanks.  It is only drudgery because we make it so.  But, if we make it fun, it can be.

Taking inventory of one's life is essential. I have become acutely aware of this since volunteering to visit weekly w/ an elderly woman dying of cancer. (She is 87). On the walls of her living room are many many (probably 100) pictures of her and her family at different times over the past 55 years. I cannot help but stare at these pictures, which make me realize how short our time here on earth is......and how precious the memories.

I love reading your posts.

A short story that is multifaceted. The thoughts that this project ispire are the ones ignored because of the drudgery of these kinds of projects. Taking stock of who we are by inventory analysis was brilliant!   sam
