Wishin' and doin'

If only...

Well, that won't get it done. Wishing may assist in the planning stage, when you are busy putting together the ultimate bucket list. But, when reality begins to creep in there are a few things you 'have to" do. Underline "do"! Sitting and using a hi-liter on all the wonderful new brochures feels good, but you still have all this stuff and no place for it to go. 

Two big bags gone and many more to follow. When it was two of us in a bigger place having sheets, towels, wash clothes, aprons, pillows, place mats, blankets, napkins, etc for a gang of people made a bit more sense...you never know when the entire Salvation Army might come to visit. Try fitting all of that into an RV. The dealers do not want to touch linens, bottom line, they don't sell. I am giving them away, but that to requires physical activity, the thing we laughingly refer to as work. 

My next thing to attack is the attic and all the ornaments we amassed for the holidays. This is one I dread. Sentiment aside, it is easily 115 degrees up there. And, this group of possessions will be going to the auctioneer and soon. I can quibble and vacillate, perhaps procrastinate, then for certain I'll just be too late. Looks like this is a box or two per day until done, and done it must be!

There remains a full garage to deal with after that. The inside of the house is already set...I don't have to do anything except make a final phone call to the dealer and pick up a check. Somehow I still find time to get the two vehicles into a garage so that I can leave more money with my "best friends", Scott, Janet and Jason. 

Someday, soon this new program will get underway. Me and my wallet are looking forward to that moment.
