We brought home endless leftovers from our weekend at Mom's. I had the rest of the korma from our night out, and TCG and ltc had the rest of the pizza and stuffed shells.
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That house is so UGLY
I may have to fight you, msbelle. That house is a lovely combination of hobbit hole and Graceland. I love it!

Our wings are not tired
We've been in our new place coming up on a year and half soon. We were in Pasadena for about 12 years before that, and that was a lot of stuff to move. Much of the odds and ends are still in the garage in the new place. It's the downside to a 1200 SF garage, even a bunch of junk in there doesn't look like much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Amazing. Edit: I actually meant the pimp, but that goes for the geodesic domes as well. But differently.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm all for a Buffista compound. But rather than sharing a huge building, I'd go for cluster homes around a communal kitchen-living area. I'd like a place to go breathe every now and then. A lotta now and then. I'll just be in the stairwell.
I culled and culled books before we left. Some went to the hospital book carts, some (carefully selected) to the adult and children's church libraries, and some to a local private school. The rest went to the local public library.
And when I unpacked and went through what we'd brought with us, I culled another eleven boxes, the 'small' U-Haul moving boxes, of books to the local public library, except one that went to the neighborhood library.
Every place was glad to get them. I might have been tempted to try and sell the newer popular fiction on ebay, but by then I wanted them available to be read more than I wanted the money, especially with the monitoring, packing, and mailing, etc. I know the public library put some of them in their semi-annual Friends of the Library sale, but some went straight on the shelves. That was easy, and made us feel really good.
We've done a lot of Restore and Veterans donations--the Veterans pick up--they're getting the loveseat and treadmill. Actually very little has gone to Goodwill, but even that means somebody may get some use out of what we don't need or use.
I shouldn't wait till once or twice a year, though. I should adopt msbelle's habit of ongoing purging, and keep up with the slow, unnoticed accrual.
