Junk or Treasure

Junk or Treasure?

That is the hardest question to answer when de-cluttering.  Finding "stuff" that I once thought was a treasure but now I am tossing it into the dumpster as "junk".  How did my heart flip flop?  I know was in love with it once...

I have decided that I might... I said MIGHT be an emotional buyer of "stuff"!  I know that I see value, interest and another life in things.  But if I don't fix it up and pretty it up right away - that value, interest and new life changes...goes away even.  UGH!  How does that happen...?  Everything deserves a second chance - so maybe I should keep it and .... trip over it some more, keep moving it from one spot to another, and....just maybe I will see it in a new light...give it its second (or third) life.... WAIT!! WAIT!!  I need to throw it away....give it away or make something out of it and sell it. 

So needless to say today my de-cluttering didn't go well. 

I did get a load of laundry done - does that count? 

I did organize all my cookbooks, so that is a plus.  I am giving away over half of them.  I really want to get all my favorite recipes on the computer.  That will have to wait til another day.

I also cleaned my refrigerator.  YUCK! Went to the grocery store and stocked up on fruits and veggies.  Going to start eating right again - too much junk food over the holidays I think.  Have a great energy drink that Mr. B and I really like.  He calls it his "Green Slime"! 

Green Energy Drink

The other one that I love is a berry energy drink.

Have a great day people!  Do something nice for someone today.
