Well, Sue...look at you! When are you heading to Florida? You are the help I need to finish my clearing out, downsizing and the renovating. I need someone with your organization skills to help me get more accomplished. But, I can't keep up with someone working too much and I do need to be part of this project! Sounds like you've actually done a lot yourself, for yourself. Congratulations to you both. Blessings in 2021!!!! Elizabeth

Elizabeth and @sundance6 - Well, I tried wriggling my nose, closing the door so the fairies would come and work on it, and ignoring it - nothing helped. So this summer I started " at least one shelf, one drawer or one box a day" - this works! I have made it through the bedroom, the guest room, the laundry room (except for 2 shelves in one small cabinet that is really craft room overflow), the linen closet and the kitchen. I started the family room before my daughter had to make an emergency move, and took it over for her plants and as a work from home office.
Some days I actually manage 2-4 hours, other days one box and about 30 minutes is all that happens. Now I have started my sewing/craft room, which I expect to take at least a month, or maybe all winter.
Elizabeth - if I travel, it will be post-vaccine, to go to my tiny home in Far South Texas for a few weeks or to Spokane to visit my husband's 84 yo sis.
Sundance - where will you be moving in Northern NM? We love using the Gallup area as a base when we tour all the fabulous ruins, parks and pueblos in the area.
