So I can't believe we just celebrated another Thanksgiving.
On Sunday my brother so graciously cooked dinner for 15 at his house which was a nice change.
My mom and I usually do all the cooking for the holidays so when last Christmas & this Thanksgiving came where my brother volunteered my mom and I were stoked. She still cooked a ham & brought some salads.
And I made the stuffing and some very delish Pumpkin Cream Cheese Cupcakes in which I will share the recipe with you real soon!
SO Happpy Belated Thanksgiving Canada!!!!
Wow....one never knows how much JUNK they collect until it is time to move.
Mind you I didn't move that far just upstairs from a basement suite to the top floor of the same house, but man.... we didn't hire movers although my parents were a big help, but it took me a week in between working, have a sick hubby then him going back to work to get moved just upstairs. Whew... well now that is all done, it's time to go through the little stuff and be rid of junk. I will not hold on to so much stuff anymore.
No I was not a contender for the TV Show Hoarders Burried Alive but maybe more along the lines of being a Contender for TV Show called Consumed which is shot locally in The Greater Vancouver / Fraser Valley areas.
Today while taking a break I sat down to watch Consumed with my mom, and she's all freaking out... OMG OMG.... That's Nikki, she's my friend from Church.... Didn't see the whole episode...but the lady who was on Consumed today belongs to the same church as my parents. And my mom said she had given this lady a bag full of clothes. One person's junk is another person's treasure... but how can you truly treasure ANYTHING when you are digging yourself a hole in which is very hard to get out of.
This short move sure opened my eyes.... LESS IS MORE!
So I will no longer be accepting useless toys for my kids, furniture, clothes no one will ever wear or anymore clutter to fill up my home and make my life a mizzy hell.
I'm sad to say I didn't think I was one of THOSE people... but yet I was.
This moving chapter is now closed and I'm moving on from collecting clutter!
So with this Thanksgiving & move come and gone...
I am THANKFUL to catch up on some well needed beauty sleep!
TTFN!!
Cheers, Bonnie
