Good Morning
Jan. 12th, 2020 07:49 amIt's not quite light out. I'm enjoying my coffee. Biggie's in my lap and The Smalls is watching from the chair. My brother is still asleep.
I'm still flying on the high of getting rid of all that junk yesterday. And I'm now seriously considering a major purge of my Mariners swag. I have about 6 shelves of Mariners shit. I have a good dozen of Mariner hats. I think Goodwill is going to get everything but maybe a half shelf's worth. It really helps to have someone with zero attachment to your stuff point out how much of it you could benefit by not having.
I love my stuff but there's a line somewhere that separates having cool stuff from OMG where did all this crap come from??? And there is enormous joy in empty spaces. Plus, what the heck am I saving all this shit for...
We polished off the afternoon in front of the football game. Turns out, The Smalls is quite a pigskin fan... or maybe he's just a Bill fan. But pretty much as soon as Bill sits down The Smalls is in his lap.

Eating recap... Last night we tried a new to me hole in the wall Chinese place in Chinatown and it was delightful. Comfortable with good food. Gan Bei. I see they deliver via Door Dash. Nice. That will be happening. Plus, it was just a nice place to eat. Then we stopped at Uwajimaya for Beard Papa's Cream Puffs which we ate while watching the rest of the football game.

Date: 2020-01-12 06:04 pm (UTC)Omg, this is so true! I have been doing the same thing off and on. Going through the things that just sit around on a shelf or back in the cupboards or closets, usually forgotten.
Because you are too right, what the heck are we saving all this shit for. It's not like the things are doing any good all entombed in my closet for years. Mostly they are just in there getting old, and forgotten.*lol*
