oh all the nice things to read. I would be so happy to come to everyone's home and do for you all what I cannot do for myself - organize, de-clutter, and re-arrange.
Not great day at the shelter. No adoptions and word that a dog I had fostered had to be put down (returned by two different people for biting). Adopters just not listening to what we know about the dog and the dog being a not very nice dog.
Now I am home in a very clean (for me) house with my Bailey who I am loving on and Maya the dog we sit for. Maya's people had to leave the country for the very ill father/father-in-law who is probably being taken off life support tomorrow.
The reason the house is so clean is being I had a house visit from a rescue organization. I should find out in a day or two if I am approved to be a foster home for the Boston Terrier Rescue of North Texas! YAY!
I love the little Bostons -- they're so with-it.
Oh man, Beverly, that sounds terrible!
And I'm sorry about the breakup, Shir, but congrats on the re-enrolling!
My house is getting clean, although I just remembered I have to switch out laundry. A friend is staying here Tuesday, and then strangers staying for the band festival Thursday - Tuesday. YIKES.
Since we're talking about de-cluttering and whatnot. I am listing stuff on ebay tonight.
Starting with my brother's old 1978 Star Wars figures. Here's the link to the first one, feel free to share with anyone you think might be interested. They can search for all things I list tonight, but clicking on my seller name - msbelle.
I'll also probably list some LuLaRoe clothing I have never worn, and I might even get to listing some vintage housewares or old books if I really get on a roll.

I am also listing stuff on ebay, though nothing so interesting.
Oh no msbelle. Poor foster dog!
Oh, msbelle. That's hard, I'm sorry.
I remain in awe of your ongoing fight against clutter, though. It sneaks up on me. And H would happily subside in a tsunami of things. He still hasn't gotten over "...most toys wins."
Oh, Shir. It just sucks to have to say goodbye to someone you love.
Beverly, that's so scary - I am glad it subsided.
In the interests of cheerfulness, may I recommend a show on Netflix called "Emergency Down Under"? Aussie police and first responders, with frequent sightings of hot Chris Hemsworth look alike EMTs and firemen being modest and competent and being comforting to hurt kids and worried parents.
