I got all my boxes that were stacked/crammed into my dining room all moved to where they go. Oh my! I counted more than 150 boxes. I also got all the furniture that my helpful but not always fully capable of understanding English helper moved all over the place put back into place.
So I am trying to sort all the stuff. Which is fraught with emotional time bombs. So much of my X's stuff is all mixed in. I don't know what he wants, am tired of trying to figure it all out. So I am just going to gather it all into a box put his name on it. I don't think he is as attached to the little things as I am. I haven't even begun to sort photos.
And then I keep finding piles of birthday, anniversary and other random cards. I tell myself not to read them, but I do! (UGH!) So I just keep shoving them all into a box, and I will figure out what to do with them later. But it reinforces the MLC theory...... Because each card had a thoughtful thing written in addition to the part printed on the card.
I have friends coming for Thanksgiving. So I am using that to force myself to just get it all cleaned up. Darn my pack rat ways!
