9-22-2013 update

We are still working on getting rid of stuff and have dropped off a lot of clothes and odds and ends at the Goodwill and D.A.V. (Disabled American Veteran thrift shop) and occasionally the YWCA treasure chest when we are on that side of town (which is rarely these days sorry). Anyway, the coming back into the home has slowed but hasn't stopped, but I am proud of my husband and his refraining from stopping at garage sales and not buying tons just bits and pieces here and there and actually sticking to what we need vs. what will come in handy someday or was too good of a deal to pass up. Which is a HUGE step for him and I am so very proud of him.

We still have a long way to go in our hoard and hopefully we will get things rolling and get rid of all excess stuff so hopefully someday soon we can move to a bigger home and rent and sell all our homes rentals included, and just focus on cleaning and decluttering and living and not so much repairs that keep tying up our funds and not allow us to be on a budget because its so unpredictable on the repairs we have to pay for every month. Anyway. Big steps going on, very proud, still have much to do. Thank you for your encouraging words (if you please would post them I could use some encouragement thanks). The reason why I don't post so often is because I don't think anyone cares and no one wants to read this...if you gave me feedback on what you want from me I would love to humor you and get you what you are looking for in such a subject blog. Thanks your comments will help me help you believe me!

Anyway, talk to you all later.
Sincerely,
Rabeka Jo
