Could the date of my last post be true? Of course it is…you see I have been working in my room at school, cleaning. Yes, you heard it right, cleaning. I have decided to retire and now I am cleaning 40 years of “things”.
So far I have completely cleaned out one whole filling cabinet, (I willed the cabinet to a younger colleague) and all ten shelves that held years of cherished art work and writings from former students, also many useful and not so useful things.
Books, books and more books...something had to give!
I have recycled 7 bags of books that were so old they were turning yellow plus the really good ones that have been read so much, they were falling apart. 
The gray cabinet is gone! The green one only has one drawer with papers in it!
I have thrown out 5 garbage bags of “junk”!
I have filled so many boxes with recycled papers I lost count!
I will soon post a real sob story…no really, a true sob story…about me sobbing. I know you can’t wait..but it will have to wait, just hopefully not as long as it took for this post.
