Getting rid of stuff--Breaking up is Hard to Do!
Today at NCFR Headquarters, we are having spring clean up day. You know how one can accumulate paper, hang on to obsolete magazines, and generally "save" way too much over the years? I just had my sixth anniversary at NCFR, and I have piles of -for lack of a better word-"matter" than needs to go... and so do my coworkers. (The piles need to go, not my coworkers.) We'll be in recycling heaven.
But there's more fun-we're having a potluck lunch, and we have a number of good cooks in the office. I brought in my contribution to the meal-a cake that says "Happy Birthday, Shirley." My favorite actress and TV mom, Shirley Jones, is 76 today.
Part of letting go of stuff you haven't touch in two years is scary. "What if I need it next week?" But you know you won't. Reminds me of the Neil Sedaka song Breaking up is Hard to Do. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5fPDYPk8YE . Sing along with Shirley Jones and the rest of the Partridge Family!
On to purging!
