Gorgeous day today
We have had a couple cold winter storms roll through here in the last three weeks -- the ski season is going out with a bang!
Today is quite different though -- clear skies, temps in the low 60's.
Had to run into town to get my Dad's garbage can out onto the street for tomorrows pickup -- got a bunch of stale food and don't want the house to turn rancid. Got a lot of sorting and tossing to do -- my Mom was not a hoarder in the classical sense; no towering stacks of newspapers and rotting garbage but
everything was filed away in an organized fashion. Going though old telephone bills, I find the bill, the envelope it was mailed in, the promotional mat�riels that were mailed with the bill, etc...
Add to that, there have been the occasional Certificate of Shares of any number of Stocks found in stacks of other papers so each sheet of paper has to be gone through before it can be tossed.
There is a good friend of ours who has just started cleaning and organizing our house so we will be hiring her to help -- having someone who is not emotionally involved will be really good.
