I got rid of SO MUCH when we moved from Gainesville to the Tampa Area at the end of 2005. Then, my ex-husband left us a couple months later and I got rid of even more. And, when I finally moved in with family, I gave away yet more. I’m not talking about a few bags of books. I am talking about furniture, trash bags of baby clothes., dishes, books, toys, just tons of stuff – may be even literally.

Still, I have a storage unit packed the gills and I am taking up more of the garage here than some people would like. My goal this weekend if to go through my daughter’s clothes and toys while she is at her dad’s. One can only actively play with so many Barbies and My Little Ponies. Also, I have plastic bins filled with bottles and jars of meds from over the years, first aid stuff, partial prescriptions, baby items, some Hydroxycut and other diet aids…the list goes on. I need to think out all of that as well.

I have my work cut out for me and even still, I will never fit all I still own into a two-bedroom apartment.
