…spring cleaning…
(Confessions)

So last night, we had a small “oh god, I think the house is on fire” scare and (once everything had been resolved) I spent the last few moments of my waking hours wondering what the hell I would do if that actually happened.

*knocks on wood*

As a result, I’m in purge mode again…tons of wrist baubles and items I never got around to listing in the etsy store are forthcoming…maybe some other thangs…because I can’t bear to think that I’d be standing on the third floor of a 105-year-old wood framed house with a fully stocked and serviced bar on one end, my iMac in another, and all of the shit that keeps me decent in the daytime in another, wondering how fast I would need to run to grab my birth cert and insurance papers and then double back to save my most treasured pairs of shoes.

Priorities.  I haz them.

In all honesty, I’m still chasing that ever-elusive dream of having a wardrobe full of workhorses with a couple of wildcards sprinkled here and there.  It’s a work in progress.  A perpetual work in progress.

    I’m itching for a purge too. I feel like I’m swimming in excess. Part mental disease, part reality. No bueno.

    I finally figured out how to comment using my reader. Omg! A fire in that fantastic home of yours would be catastrophic. Though am happy you are purging since I love wearing all your old clothes :)
