I have discarded or otherwise removed all the valueless clutter. Now what’s left is the ‘good stuff.’ I can’t buy any more storage devices, such as shelves, as there is no place to put them (this isn’t my house). So, I have purchased some 24 gallon Rubbermaid containers to at least contain the yarn, fabric and stuff. I have beer boxes full of paper items to go through—patterns, old bills, etc. I need to be down to one box. I am thinking of getting a 2 door filing cabinet to help with the paper stuff. I did try to savage my quilt book collection. Only eliminated 20 books so far this year. Oh well, less every month is better. I have managed to reduce my spending so less stuff is coming in. There’s hope!

I seemed to have a lot more traffic on my blog since I added the kitten photos. Certainly more comments!! So, I think I will add some updated kitten photos (they are 5 weeks old and cute).
I also found that listing my blog in my signature while posting in my regular forums has drawn many more folks. I know I appear as a link of blogs regularly read on other folks blogs. This is good!
Of course, my relatives do look at my blog. My bedridden great-Aunt who lives 1,500 miles away loves to see my work. So, I’m glad she’s enjoying it as well.

Having the chewable vitamins right by my bedroom door (I take them when I go to the shower) has proved to work extremely well. That’s good because now I have to add vit. C to the mix. I hope I can find chewable ones. Now, I’m also adding Vit. E, but I’m trying to find a spot that’s handy that is near water. I know I can be trained. It is just difficult to do in my current living situation.
