TYME

Sunday May 24, 2015

 

Tyme, they say, has come.

Good time.

Good times. Good memories.

One year ago I moved – my down-sizing purge was too hasty, cramming too much into too little space while ‘packing away’ so many of my dad’s things without culling, sorting, choosing – what to keep, what to say good-bye to …

Clearing out, tossing out, letting feelings out … is a different coloured work horse.

Yesterday’s office/purge cleaning out, clearing cobwebs – therapeutic, whether or not doing ‘house clean’ and ‘office clean’ in one weekend was wise choosing. Boxes, garbage bags, papers and files litter every room …

In a perfect world I would have one more room. To keep writing room and office separate – so those worlds can be separate when I want them to be.

Time, perhaps, for moving along …
