The Junk Wall

I have 14 issues of Midwestern Home and Garden, 4 ugly pottery projects and a broken computer (among other things) sitting on my dining room floor. The pile of junk has plagued me long enough.

I started reading the magazines on the bus today and I learned about Feng Shui and Tea Ceremonies. Cluttered rooms are often a sign of cluttered lives… too many people making too many demands on you… choking out the important things. That’s how I feel. I don’t need to drop friends until my circle of friends shrinks to a line, but I have started throwing out old clothes, my old computer, and pottery I regretted making. My goal is to get the junk wall under control… then I can tackle my life and put an end to dreams about annoying people calling my cell phone… where I just clip the cell phone on my hip and let them talk until they hang up. I have no interest in their sob stories.

We are having a garage sale next Saturday. Bring it all. Whatever remains will be "freecycled."

Because you hate answering phones as much as I do, Sherm.

Maybe I'll bring over my bad ceramic projects and try to sell them for $1... that's enough money to get 3 candy bars at my "buy" price.
