Store room work

Today I got into the back store room-ie.- junk room, and did some more de-junking.  I took some things to the Salvation Army.  In the process I got a good look at THEIR store room.  They had clothing heaped up in a huge pile, enough to fill a garage-almost reaching to the roof.  I will never, ever buy clothing there again.  I know that people donate their goods thinking that they will be cared for, will be of use to someone and save buyers some money.  Not for me, never again.  I like my cloths on hangers, don'ch'know.

The back store room is large enough for a small bedroom.  I had it added onto the house some time ago, just for storage.  There is no heat in it or direct lighting.  I hope to put a few shelves in there and maybe a freezer.  I have 3 freezers that need to be out of sight-out of mind.  If I can transfer everything from 3 to 2 freezers...that would be good and I would have better access to them.  Wish me muscles and determination!

As I stayed home to get some of the de-junking done, I can't say I have much to write about. I will try to get more stuff out tomorrow.  It is hard to believe how much stuff we can accumulate.  There are boxes and boxes of canning jars in there and I probably will not do much more canning.  To keep or not to keep: that is the question.

GAG!  The price of gas shot up to almost $3.50 a gal.  That'll put the breaks on the economy.  We have gas...lots of it...a surplus.  the speculators  and oil companies rule the world.  Not my world.

FOR OUR EXISTANCE
TO BE THE SUNSHINE
OF GOD'S LOVE
TO BE THE HOPE
OF ETERNAL HAPPINESS
THAT'S ALL."
