Getting Cheeky
I am working thru my storage unit now and enjoying the “freeing” feeling of releasing some items for other uses. It is a great feeling! 🙂 I’m lightening my load and finding all sorts of things to donate and recycle.
In our neck of the woods the squirrels are hurrying and scurrying in fat-cheeked ernest as they gather, stock, and store in preparation for winter. These industrious little fellows click, chatter, and scold as we walk by, warning each other with staccato-like tail flicks of potential danger — “Duck and cover, there’s humans and dogs!”
Considered to be in the “autumn” of my life, I recently enjoyed my 57th birthday. Unlike squirrels, as a dyed-in-the-wool minimalist I have not amassed a collection of things. I have, however, accumulated great memories—with many more to come!
Do you stockpile anything?
