stuff

stuff has a way of accumulating. you turn away for a second and suddenly you have way more stuff than you want, need or use. how does this happen?!?!? i'm acutely aware of this nasty little trait of stuff right now - cause i'm up to my eyeballs in sorting, packing and pitching (i hope that i can be incredibly harsh with my "should i keep this" scale - but that remains to be seen. i have moments where i can be really detached and pitch, and others where i'm suddenly sentimental and decide to keep it).

I spent a few days last week packing up my sister's apt. i'm a packing pro...which is good, cause this week i have to pack up my own home. I grabbed some cardboard boxes out of the the recylcing bin by Hutchs (ultimate recycling)...and now "all i have to do"' is fill them up. (and hopefully not keep too many!)

i need to be completely out of my trailer by the end of July, so the clock is ticking. i think maybe this is one of those things you don't fully think through before you decide to move overseas.....
