refurbishing and de-cluttering the nest

 i more or less got things back in order today --- added a little shelving where there always shoulda been some in the first place--- still a ways to go, but i put about 15 or 20 cubic feet of stuff, mostly paper and gee-gaws, in storage --- next i will sort through the stuff i stuck in iris and jc's basement when i moved (nearly seven years ago!) --- i want to get in one place all of that stuff with which i have wound up, mostly good flea-market material, but some that i just can't just throw away --- my ma's aunt ruby's photo collection from the 1920s and my pa's uncle willie's shaving kit, photos, and books --- she married late in life and never had children; he was kinda funny, doncha know, and never married at all --- elva's centennial memorabilia and her parents' wedding license from 1884 and what not --- elva, who also never married but lived to 107 anyway has her own little web page, which almost never fails to get a hit or two every day --- i should probably do the same thing for ruby and willie ---

closets are still a mess, but there is now space to maneuver against the stuff --- and in the meantime, i'm enjoying the declutterment elsewhere ---
