candlelight and quiet |
This was going to be a reflective post. Some thoughts about my life and where it's heading. But really I feel completely bamboozled. My mind is ticking over in a kind of slow drunk way. I've been attic clearing today. I am on a mission to let things go. I can't help but feel like my life is on the other side of it. Wherever that might be. Maybe it will all still be here just the same, but feeling a little lighter.
There have been car loads. It's endless. Just how much stuff can fit into one house, it's incredible. No other thoughts, I'm in a stupor.
I keep threatening to empty our attic, but just the thought of it scares me, maybe one day!
ReplyDeleteWell done on the mammoth effort Heather, No wonder you are feeling at a loss for words.
ReplyDeleteSleep well.

The strange thing about getting rid of stuff is, once it's out of the house and a few weeks have passed, you will most likely never think of the things again. That's how it was for me when we downsized before our move.
ReplyDeleteGood for you Heather. - Cleaning out the attic is a huge undertaking and when you're done you're going to feel like a huge weight is lifted.
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed - the thought of clearing out our attic brings me out in a cold sweat! It's my 'halfway' storage: things that the girls have grown out of - books, games etc, - that would be too painful to get rid of straight away, get put into the attic with a view to getting rid of them at a later date .......... only I never do! Maybe they'll come in useful for grandchildren?! x
ReplyDeleteAttic clearing …. I understand you feeling lighter …. It's like ours moves from country to country : not easy, but you really need to do it! and then you feel better!!!! ;oD

Hey Heather,
ReplyDeleteThis feels like a very reflective post to me. Letting go in any form carries reflective pauses.
On a more flippant note - my attic is actually a terrifying space of toys and camping gear. I have to go up there today and fetch the decs down. I'm not looking forward to it.
Have a lovely weekend
