So will take about another 4-6 months to sort. Should have thrown it all away and started fresh. You have motivated me once again.

I spent last year doing just this very thing, truly letting go of stuff and clearing it out of the house - gone and nearly forgotten. I find myself thinking I have something, can't find it and then remember that it went the way of the rummage sale.

Sometimes it's our own voice we hear. Let's remember that we were made by God and He never makes mistakes. There are people smarter than me, but that doesn't mean I'm not smart too.
