My progress as of 03/9/2011

I got rid of 4 or 5 boxes of office supplies the other day by donating it all to the school my kids attend...they were over joyed with all the post it notes, stackable shelves, binders, filing cabinet dividers of many kinds including folder type, as well as many different print outs for different types of hand outs for homework and stuff that my mom wrote my name on each page of and I am sure she intended for me to do them but we never got around to doing them for some reason or another, as well as staple removers, desktop tape dispensers, totes for like pens and arts supplies...anyways there were 17 of those stackable plastic shelves total...so that saved a lot of space as well as the boxes that were taking up space...of course the space was over at the rent house where we easily moved a whole truck full of stuff from my sisters before she moved out of state...anyways...progress just not where its needed which is here at home...though I did get rid of some stuff and I have a box that is being added to...that is going to be donated...I just want it full before I drop it off cause I don't want to waste the box I am limited on having at this point...anyways...I am getting there slowly but surely....its just hard to get rid of books...especially those of value when you know you have something worth something but not having the connections to sell the collector items sorta thing....yeah
I have less than 3 months to be ready for baby to come home and we keep having to work on our other homes our rental properties instead...and other type hoards that don't really belong to me but I am pretty much looking through my mothers stuff and saying oh I remember this and dismiss it and donate it or throw it away depending on if its of worth for DAV to sell...anyways I am nearly buried in my mothers books that she has collected over the years...as well as inherited from different people she lost throughout the years...and some are worth something but finding someone who holds interest in them and willing to pay what is worth is very tricky process...I just may put them on ebay starting at .99 and hope someone doesn't end up getting such a great deal that they rob me of its worth and hopefully I make enough money to help pay for my braces that I desperately need so I can close my mouth and chew my food properly because my teeth don't meet anymore due to having TMJD surgery, then getting a splint to correct my bite and now I need braces to finally be pain free and able to chew properly and thus solving issues I have been having with my digestion process...anyways...long story there...
Anyways, just thought I would update on my progress on my hoard...
I will try to keep you all up to date on my hoard and I hope it is helping...I am sorry I am slacking off but my health hasn't been up to par lately and I am coming down with something yet again...just got over something and now I am coming down with something else grrr...will I ever not be sick? will I ever feel good?
Anyways talk to you later please comment so I know I am loved and someone is out there reading this...thanks
Sincerely,
Rabeka Jo
