serious problems

I have serious emotional attachment to my towels and linens. I can’t part with them! Sure, it was easy to toss out all of the ragged, torn towels; but want about the perfectly good stuff. There only fault was being a color scheme that no longer suited my bathroom! OK. I hate to admit it, but I pulled all my towels out of the cupboard three days ago and washed everything. Then I sorted them by color set. And then I stared at them for the past 48 hours trying to decide which ones to toss. I had something like 58 different towels. It’s just my hubby and me! Sure we have the odd guest, but get real… who needs that many towels! I love the pure white; I love the gray. Why do I have purple and green. But they are in great shape; how does someone just throw them out?

ohhhh, therapy required!



learn how to prepare 10 excellent meals
It's not that I can't cook

I am looking to develop a larger range of meals that I can cook for family and friends, from scratch. Most of my standbyes are traditional home cooking.

Here are ones I can do right now:

1. Chicken Pot Pie
2. Beef Pot Roast
3. Lasagne

There are other things that I can cook, but I wouldn’t call them my special dishes.

22 t-shirts

I have been sorting clothes and counted 22 t-shirts that I would consider “staying home” attire. I have neatly folded them and put on my closet shelf. I know that at least half of them must go, but having trouble letting go.
