It took me a week between job and other stuff to put together a few kitchen cupboards and some useful top surface. It should also be a step towards reclaiming the house. Some of the clutter should flow into new open space and make space somewhere else for other clutter to move and free yet someplace else... Right?
Or - you will just find new stuff to clutter the free space, and then there will be no space anywhere again ;)
History bound to repeat itself? Perhaps. Or perhaps we should start applying the rules we have for the kid upon ourselves as well. Want a new toy? Have to get rid of three old ones, first. Works for her...
Does she get to pick the new toy?
"I'll trade you three teddy bears for a Tesla, Dad."
Anytime, I love those. In our language, that is also an instrument that it turns out they call an adze in English. You can never have too many adzes in your shack.
