Oooh Tillie--you worked with George Lucas! Star Wars is something I do with my brother. He is hooked and when we go see one of the movies, he talks about it for days. We saw Rogue One just before Christmas.

Tillie I hope you can fight off any illness. I do rest and liquids.

Am going to work from home tomorrow. I have plenty to keep me st work but I just want to be home. Will get more Christmas boxes out and I have a bin of Christmas stuff that I need to find homes for the contents. I do not want this in my hallway in 2017. end of year challenge accepted, dear Tillie.

Take care of yourselves, everyone.

Hi to all Happy Hoarders! :D
Tillie, yes, i have several of those feral shelters in each outbuilding, that i made a few years ago. Im more concerned with the ferals bullying my current cats, and of course, a feral having kittens here...and i saw that new black kitty again yesterday, kind of close up, and it didnt run off...it may be a stray, in other words tame, and if it does have kittens, theyll be easier to tame if their Mom is not afraid of me....if it doesnt happen too fast...im hoping its just a neighbor cat that likes the gourmet food my cats have?!
The skunk made noise all night. I just wasnt up to dealing with it. Its always somewhat traumatic at Christmas time cuz of the dynamics with my human-birth-family. My Mom told me in her Christmas card that i jyst got that she became a Great-grandmother last fall. Weve emailed a lot since then but she never mentioned that cuz im sure my sister didnt want me to know. I honored our Dad-s wishes in his will over covering for her embezzling ex-husband....id really, REALLY like to know how she wouldve handled the impossible situation she put me in. Ok. End of rant. I cried all day yesterday. Today will be focused on happy things! I read about making dirtbag homes & im thinking about doing that? So, instead of living in a dirty home, i can build one where the dirt is in bags, creating the walls?! ha haha ha ;D ~♡~

Good Morning Everyone :)

Yes, very sad.
"May the force be with you" Carrie.

Hi CriticalMass :)
I've seen all the Star Wars movies and enjoyed them all too.
One day as I was working for George Lucas he asked me what I thought of the latest one and was very happy to find that I was a true fan of the films. :D

Hi Anonymoniker :)
Thank you (((hug)))
YEA!!! for white mountains!
Unfortunately, when doing a big decluttering project some things get tossed in the heat of the moment that maybe should have been kept.
But it will be ok.
You will find a replacement and maybe even a better one than the original one.
Youtube has videos titled "feral cat shelters".
They may give you some ideas. ;)


Hi Tatoulia :)
YEA!!! for sharing pizza! :D
WAY TO GO!!! for having gotten so much garbage out of your home! (((HUGS)))


Yesterday evening started feeling sorta sickly.
A nasty head cold coming on. :(
Will drink lots of liquids, take ibuprofen, netipot, warm salt water gargles and wait it out.
Otherwise, I am just fine and dandy. ;P
Planned to wash out litter boxes today, light the burn barrel, etc.
Maybe tomorrow. :)

Hello Everyone--agreed so sad re Carrie Fisher. What a loss.
Good to hear from you, CM. Anony how nice to have snow! We were above 50F today if you can believe it!

I way overslept today and got to work at ten. Such is life.

Am making dinner (got a take n bake pizza, Tillie, to celebrate with you). Just unloaded the dishwasher. Was so pleased to have so much of the garbage out of my house.

Need to keep moving forward!

~☆~Happy Holidays to all!~☆~
We had snow on Christmas Eve & woke up to white mountains in every direction! YEA!!! ~♡~
My kitties are all still safe & my well is fixed from drawing animals, so im grateful! I still have water bowls near the house for my cats & the birds, etc., and their food bowls, which im going to make sure arent out after dark with food in them. Im not sure how else i could care for the feral cats? Its funny cuz this skunk doesnt bother me so much now, in comparison to the animals that could kill my cats. One thing tho, is i finally threw away the lid to my kitchen trash can, after years of it sitting behind the can, and now im trying to barricade it with other stuff, from the skunk! Ive actually had regrets about throwing things out, kind of frequently. It has mainly been things i had to push myself to toss, not things i was clear about. Fortunately, i can dig through the pile & probably find it...ha ha
Im glad y'all are cozy & enjoying life! :D ~♡~

Was going to post about decluttering then saw the headline . . . as a Star Wars fan from way back, please indulge me:

R.I.P. Carrie Fisher - thanks for the memories

I thought surely she'd pull through - yet I did think it odd there hadn't been much in the way of updates. And one announcement from the family had said no good or bad to report or something like that.

Happy birthday to Tillie! ❤🐈 🎉 🎈 🎂

Got out one more bag of garbage--mainly papers I had shredded. I cleaned cat box. Feeling much better. Waiting for laundry to be finished I can put in dryer. Dishwasher ready to go.

Ran some errands tonight after getting home from BF's house. It is raw and rainy and somewhat foggy. Very Sherlock Holmes. I do love a night like this. Didn't even carry an umbrella.

Great birthday plans, Tillie.

Just got back from BF's house. We didn't get groceries BUT he got me cat food and litter, so I'm pretty sure I can live to see another day!


Two bags of garbage out and countless recycling batches. Will work on one more garbage bag then call it a night. Back to work tomorrow!

I think Tillie's birthday should be a national holiday!

Happy, happy birthday dear heart.

Ps we call amnesty on typos and misspelling right? THREW out, not through out.

Hey Tillie! Both glad and sad the kitties are gone! You were an angel to take care of them and provide them with care. The rug sounds wonderful! Congratulations!

I am busily getting the recycling out. Dropped off the tips for two of my mother's caretakers. Have gotten out lots of recycling and have two big garbage bags ready. Through out my gingerbread house. Just in a mood to get this place more presentable. for me. Doing it for myself is very satisfying.

Not a drop of food in house but I think I can persuade BF to get me to store. We are going up to his house to get the rest of my gifts. I left them there Christmas Eve as I had to drive Mom home and had my hands full as it was.

Today's project is to get all the recycling out. I received a fair number of gifts in the mail and the boxes have piled up. My house is terrible and I think tomorrow or Wednesday the plumber is coming to try to put my bathroom back together.

I'll write more later. Need to break free of the desire7e6 to sit around.

Happy Hanukkah and Merry Christmas!

Very relaxing time with mom, BF and some of BF's employees last night. At BF's house, so it was very relaxing. Slept all day today, only getting up to feed kitty.

Hope you are all well. I reflect on my many blessings and thank you all for sticking with me as I sort through the stuff of my life.

~☆~HAPPY BIRTHDAY TILLIE!!!~☆~
~☆~MERRY CHRISTMAS, ALL!!!~☆~
....ill be back when i get a chance.. ♡♡♡

Happy birthday, dear Tillie!

Almost one o'clock and I'm getting ready to clear my desk and leave.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TILLIE!

Anonymoniker, a phobia is right! I just cringe when the little gift bags come out. Given my economic and time crunch situation I don't bring any of my own. And in a way, I'm doing the others a favor by not bringing any!

I'm way more in favor of giving consumables - food or flowers, etc. - as gifts. I used to be of the mindset to give "something that lasts," but unless that something is a true treasure, it quickly becomes a burden on the recipient - even if they don't realize it right away.

Guess what I did this morning - I even surprised myself. I had another stack of magazines - Book Page - they are free every month at the library here. Well, I had them going back 3-4 years and the other day I thought, I'm going to start going through these really fast and toss them.

Well, I started doing that but it was going really slowly. And I know the reason I was even bothering was that I still had that nagging fear of "missing out" on discovering an interesting book. Well, great balls of fire, do I not have hundreds of actual books already sitting around not getting read?!

Last night I was just feeling disgusted and frustrated with my life in general off and on - which isn't fun but can sometimes channel into a good form of angry energy. That's when the idea came to me. "Just throw all those Book Pages in the trash!" Today is pickup day and they're in the dumpster, about to go bye-bye! I won't ever have to deal with them again! Book Page even has a website if I ever get that dang curious, but I hope I just keep getting back to being focused on more important priorities anyway.

I'm not even going to pick up any more of them at the library. ;)

Anonymoniker

There are LOTS of sites online and on Youtube
that go into detail about deterring mountain lions, bob cats & coyotes.
Please look at them.
Most important is to eliminate the food and water sources.
Clear clutter to reduce the rodent population because they eat rats & mice too.
Turn on lights and a radio.
Use ammonia soaked rags.
GOOD LUCK!!!!!


Will write my usual post later ;D

Hi all!
Congrats on stopping the gifty gifts! Every birthday & Christmas i get afraid of receiving those things! I know this is a site for hoarders, but after my years as the serial shopper & then severe poverty, im actually almost phobic now of 'stuff!' Ive really changed to seek experiences now, instead...if i could just get my house clean and fixed..
A few days ago i found more fresh lion tracks. There are also a lot of coyotes coming through. It is very likely from that mess of water at my well that my sloppy handyman left! I have a new guy coming this morning that im hoping can fix it right. In the meantime, ive 'decorated' that whole area where the tracks and poops are with lights, Christmas tree tinsle, moth balls, ammonia & bullets(for the gunpowder smell), to intimindate them from the area. Im not sure what else to do...except pray my cats stay safe, which i do..
Tillie, do you know of any other things i could do to get them to leave my area? Im hoping without the water pouring out from my well, that they will leave? Ive been really worried? ~♡~

Thank you Tillie! I love your encouragement and you are so right--I've never tried that method and it's time that I do! there is absolutely no down side to try a different way to declutter!

I'm washing up some pjs now and I'm going to wrap gifts.

We have a half day at work tomorrow and I am determined to leave at noon!

Hi everyone, I'm at office still.

CM good to hear from you! Good work getting rid of the magazines! Each bit of progress helps, and knowing that, iId really like to push myself much harder.

Long ago I made the decision not to keep the trinket gifts. I generally throw out before I get home. I know that's cruel but it's the truth. I have no need. I don't use candles, I don't like smelly stuff, etc. I want to live my life without the obligation gifts. I don't regift because in my mind, it perpetuates the practice. I throw them out. Cruel but true.

Tillie! Tiny baby cats! You did a good job of taking care of them and finding them homes. Im so happy. I love their little tails.

Will write more later.

Checking in...

Glad we've had the winter solstice and now the days are getting a wee bit longer!

I'm kind of at sixes and sevens, have some ideas about how to tackle some of the storage as well as am making tiny inroads on the stuff at the place where I'm staying. I'm scatterbrained right now because my mechanic is trying to get with me to get the repairs of radiator hose and also he may have found me some used tires.

But he is so good at what he does - he does plumbing too and other repairs - that he tends to get called for emergencies. And he has 3 teenage kids. So there have been a lot of times where he's supposed to be on his way but then time goes by and I don't hear anything, and then we try another day and the same thing happens. But I like him - and I know he feels bad about it too. I just do hope we can get some of this wrapped up soon.

Meanwhile, I have come to the branch library and am on their computer - was just needing to get out - and it's near where my mechanic is so if I hear from him I can just run over there and then get someone to take me home. And I may not be here too long because I'm getting hungry so may head back home and make some lunch.

I'm in the mode of remembering projects I had started on last winter and then put aside and in some cases forgotten about. Like a quilt I was piecing, and baby blankets I was knitting or crocheting for the crisis pregnancy center. I've picked back up some of that. When I get those things done I'm going to be more strict about not starting too many crafty projects. With ADD that's always a hazard, and it multiplies the clutter really fast. I'm really going to try to go against my natural inclinations and work on one thing till it's done before starting another.

Of course, there are still things in other areas like writing and art - and I give myself permission to do those because they're different enough from crafts.

Oh, and, there are the mundane things like just cleaning and laundry... I did get some laundry done and I'm looking for little stuff to discard. I even took back some free magazines I'd brought home from quilt guild without reading them - they've been hanging around for months. Let someone else enjoy them!

Don't know about you all but at Christmas I wish people would stop giving me little gifty things I do NOT need or want. I am shamelessly regifting them to others before I start feeling any attachment to the items or any ambivalence or guilt or dithering as to what to do with them.

Tillie, hope the kitties all have found wonderful furever homes!

If I don't get a chance to post again before, everyone have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Good Morning Everyone :)

Hi Tatoulia :)
So happy last weekend went peacefully for you.
So very sorry about that plumbing disaster. Hope there are no more surprises before it can get fixed properly.
(((HUGS)))
About the special Christmas mugs LOL
Yes, I too have held onto things but when I actually use/wear them I find that they weren't really anything I really wanted anyway.
GREAT! repurposing them into cute little gifts! :D

The kittens were back home with me by 3:00pm.
This morning they are slowly starting to get back to normal.
Veterinarians only keep them until the anesthesia has mostly worn off, when the surgery goes smoothly.
Now days they use dissolving sutures too so there is no return visit to have stitches removed.
As long as the cats don't fuss with the incision there is nothing more to do.
If they do keep licking then they receive the "Cone Of Shame". ;P
My kittens are behaving very well. :D
The people may come today to get their two kittens.
The other Lady is so happy that I have no problem hiding the Christmas present kitty here for her until Christmas eve.


TTYS :)

Great catching up on your posts! Keep working toward your skunk free home, Anony!

Tillie I am excited for the kittens. So glad they found homes! A kitten for Christmas--how nice! When do they come home from being spayed?

Very peaceful time with brother last weekend. I was grateful for that.

Well I had the plumber over today to change my faucets and much to my chagrin, a pipe broke during the process. He was very kind and was trying to get someone over to help remove the cabinet and go into the wall but I told him since I'm not hosting Christmas & it only affects the bathroom sink, let's not do anything on an emergency basis. I was actually really upset but wanted to hide it. Later there was a rush of water due to the pipe being open and I was running the washer--he came right over, with the right sized plug, and I can live to see another day. The issue with the laundry water pouring into the bathroom was really stressful so when he was able to fix it, I felt such relief that honestly, all the stress went away and I can be just fine til next week. He's not sure whether the guy will come Tues or Wednesday and we will take it from there.

Tillie, I have four Christmas coffee mugs that I've used exactly once but that are "too cute" to donate. Each cup is a little different. I decided to fill three of them with peppermint teabags, candy canes and a few other treats and give them as gifts. They look so cute! And I recycled the very cute box they were stored in. HERE'S THE IMPORTANT PART: I used the one I was keeping today. It is not comfortable in my hand. I shall wash it and make it a gift for someone.

After all this time, I don't love it after all. What else can I say that about??

Much love. I will learn better habits this year Tillie & Anony!

Hi Anonymoniker :)
Happy Winter solstice to you too.;)

Busy day today for me.
Kittens went to get fixed this morning.
While they were gone I went out and visited with my friend and said good bye to her service dog who has been a sweetheart but now she will soon be going to doggie heaven.
She has had a good and long life for a Jack Russell terrier. (((HUGS)))

~Happy Winter Solstice to all!~
I havent gotten much of anything done...the thing is, i really love just relaxing, playing my drum, going for walks, reading the internet(ooops?!), and i love spending time with my boyfriend! I know i need to make time for improvements, but it is such an overwhelming amount, that i dont want to waste precious time messing with it...hmmm...
Tillie, you are right about the tiny house being needed. I just need to settle into a for sure plan. Id thought that was the log cabin till they declined making one that small! Now im back to the converted shed, which would be less money & i keep thinking how i could decorate the outside in my own mesquite wood in a unique way! This trailer is sooo much colder than my boyfriend's converted shed! His even has a cement floor with no carpet & its like summertime in there?!!
The skunk was making noise all night but i just did not want to deal with it, plus it was raining outside...also, he isnt being destructive enough for me to justify sending him 'away'....geeeez...
Also, my old 54 Chevy truck that my stepson bought from me had the motor stolen, so he said i could have it back & i want to use it to put the cat food bowls in, instead of the junk heap im using now! It would be the most adorable cat food bowl holder/lawn ornament ever!!! ha ha Im serious!
Im gonna dust one room today! Yes!
I hope each of you gets something meaningful done today! ~♡~ :D

Hi Anonymoniker :)
Thank you
Just knowing I have done the best that I can for the kittens welfare helps make it easier.
This new year lets make finding you your tiny home a big priority. (((HUGS)))
When having a hard time deciding what task to do, a good way is to play this game.
Write down 6 tasks.
Number them one through six and toss a die.
Do the numbered task that the die says.
;)

Yesterday I cleaned the place.
Bathroom, floors, dusting, etc...
Today I will do quick tidying ups to maintain the clean.
Looking forward to doing something fun today even though I haven't yet decided what that will be. ;)

Hi all!!!
Tillie, im so glad the kitties seem to have some good forever homes! How lucky they are to have found you! Ive known women that have been foster moms, and i do not know how they do it, tho knowing they will have a nice new home & family must make it easier. In many ways, i think that might be as wonderful for you as it would be for the kitties?
Tatoulia, how nice that youre getting rest! I hope all went well with your brother?
CM, i cracked up at your idea of repealing that law of physics! ha ha
Ive been loving being back with my boyfriend, but still having time here at home, too. A few nights ago it got really cold & i woke up at my boyfriend's worried about all the shoddy plumbing breaking when i realized i hadnt turned the clothes dryer breaker off & its right next to the new plumbing that keeps breaking. I had images of my place catching fire & got in a panic. I couldnt leave during the night cuz my car ignition sticks when its frozen out. When we got there & everything was fine, the amount of relief i felt made me sooo grateful all day! The handyman that did that work is now having some health issues & has quit his regular jobs. I need to find someone to hire to get it all finished & done right. I still go around on how much effort, time & money to sink into this crap trailer, rather than a new home. A little converted shed is all id need!
Yesterday i noticed i couldnt smell the skunk as much, so i opened that drawer a little to see if he was still there & he was. It also looked like he hadnt chewed up the clothes on top. He also hasnt been destroying anything, all of which makes it more difficult to send him away to Skunk Heaven. It is usually very clear where my line is drawn, but this one seems to be behaving enough to create mixed feelings on that for me.
This week i want to make a difference here...maybe ill try to dust? The decisions are often the hardest part. Ive noticed how motivated i am to put in effort to keep my boyfriend's place nice, but it already is nice. It is soooo easy to do when its already so close to perfect! Ive even learned how to make his bed...ha ha...well, not nearly as well as he does, but it looks nice! Its funny what an awesome housekeeper he is, and that wed end up together?! :D

Good Morning :)

Monday, Monday...
Today I must do general house cleaning.
With all the added kitten & cat activities
I have been slacking off.
Wednesday, Winter begins and I would like to start the season without so much dust in the house.
Today it is predicted to get all the way up to 34 degrees.
YEA!!! ? ;/

Good Morning Everybody :)

Hi Tatoulia :)
Wishing for peace for you and good driving weather too.
(((HUGS)))

OK...
Went to the adoption event this morning.
It started at 9:00am.
By 10:00am all the paperwork and fees were done for all three of my kittens.
I got to meet the people.
They are all very nice and not ignorant idiots.
The girls go get spayed this next week so I will continue to foster them until then.
The two gray kittens are adopted together.
The brown & black tabby will be a Christmas gift for a 7 year old girl and her 12 year old sister who already has a 9 year old cat.
I will keep the tabby until XMas eve.
The main lady from the organization is trying to pressure me into becoming a regular foster home for kittens and pregnant cats.
YIKES!!!!:/
Fortunately, I know how to say "NO" in several different languages. ;D
Was heartbreaking to see the adult cats up for adoption.
One needs insulin shots daily.
Another the owner died.
One needs to be an only cat.
Etc...etc...etc...

TTYS :)

Glad you got to store and safely back. I bet it's hard to give up the kitties. I'll still keep my fingers crossed for them because I bet there are more rescues in your future!

I wrapped a few gifts tonight. Now I'm going to shower and get back to bed. Heading out with brother tomorrow. I pray for peace. I'm a little nervous because we are supposed to be having snow and I don't like driving in it. But I want to see my brother.

Goodnight everyone. Thank you for the kind words, Tillie. My house is driving me nuts.

Hi Tatoulia :)
Hoping you are starting to feel much better (((HUGS)))
Happy you are spoiling the Kitty. ;D
YEA!!! for finding the new faucet!!!
WAY TO GO! for having more donations ready to go but especially for taking good care of yourself.

The weather cooperated for my trip to the grocery store.
Been snowing off & on since last night.
Tomorrow I need to take the kittens to town before 9:00am to be in the pet adoption pageant event.
Then back to pick them up at 2:00pm unless they are all adopted out.
Unfortunately, I always fall in love with any animals that I mother and it is emotionally hard when I have to let them go.
;)

Hi Tillie! Hope you made it to the store and back safely. I am working from home today--our temperature is in the single digits and even though my house is drafty and cold, I'd rather be here than spreading the germs all over office.

I did manage to get recycling and garbage out. I have to wrap gifts to free up some space. I don't even buy very much but it still makes a pile. I warmed kitty's blanket in the dryer (it was washed yesterday so pretty clean) and now she's all snuggled inside it.

I've been sleeping, sleeping, sleeping and it's been very helpful. Nothing fights off a bug like plenty of liquids and plenty of sleep. I'm grateful I've felt well enough to work from home two days and only needed to take one day off.

I have another bag of donations ready. I need to plow through. OH! Faucet is at BF's--I asked him if he had it and he does. I will have plumber here next week, depending on which days I go into office and which days I stay put.

Hi CriticalMass :)
Best of luck reclaiming the bed for you and your kitty!
Doing a room/area one little section at a time is a great way to keep things from becoming too jumbled and complicated. :)

Hi Tatoulia :)
Feel better real soon (((HUGS)))
That pesky new faucet will turn up in time
"fingers crossed".

Big storm blowing in today but looks like this morning will be a good time to get to the grocery store.
Sort of the calm before the storm.
Next several days will have rain, snow, ice, sleet, fog and temps close to 0.
Glad I have so many warm fuzzy kitties to cuddle with. ;P

Hello everyone! Good to hear from you CM!

I was sick all day/stayed in bed. Feeling better. Have eaten and am now changing sheets. Will shower and go to bed and then if still feeling better, I'll work from home tomorrow. I'll air out bedroom while I'm showering.

Good to hear from everyone. I'm disgusted with myself but trying to ignore that for now. Tillie I can't even find where input the new faucets. Isn't that ridiculous? I thought I took out of car trunk.

Well I will finish up bed now and climb back in. I didn't want to waste the sick day but I really had no choice. Terrible sore throat/gland thing.

Keep up the good work, everyone. Proud of Twinkles for being so good with the babycats.

Hi, time to make my first post on this Phase 6 thread!

Hope all are well - Tillie, sounds like you're doing right by the kitties. :)

We are having bouts of colder weather here and I can tell by how much time the grey cat wants to sleep with me at night. The colder it is, the longer he sticks around! He has turned into quite the nice snuggly boy from a feral kitten and then a wild teenage cat.

I haven't gotten any big things accomplished or even very many little ones, but I'm kind of deliberately coasting until after the holidays. I do a little here and there. Mainly I just want to isolate a small area and deal with it. Like my bed - before I went into the hospital I'd cleared it off, mostly, and it was a nice place to rest. Then it began to become a paper and book magnet. I don't know what law of physics makes that happen, but I wish someone would repeal it!

So if I could get the bed back to being a nice place, that would be one accomplishment, and I'd sleep better. And it'd make sharing the bed with kitty easier too! Then after that, I see areas in the bedroom where things have been stacked wonky - so if I could align those things and condense it would help. Again, lots of little goals.

It was hard when I moved in - very rushed - and for several months afterward I kept thinking I'd go back and redo the whole room as a single entity. I don't think that's going to happen - it's going to have to be more piecemeal. But I think I have figured out how to make that work in my favor instead of being a problem.

YEA,Tillie!!! It sounds like youre getting different kinds of things done? That can be very good, especially when it shifts you into a new mode. I may have a new female cat here. This one is black, so it could be a girl. It has been on the edge of the area yowling. My other cats just watch it but havent chased it...at least that theyve let me see! I just hope it is not pregnant, looking for a home...if it is, i will make sure to tame the kittens early on...ive found that is very helpful in adoption..except that as barn cats theyll be allowed outside, through one agency, whereas all of our other cat adoption outlets make you swear you wont let them go outside, which seems absurd in such a rural area.
Yesterday i got so much done. Not to sound like one of those corny-in-love-females, but watching my boyfriend do things is very helpful & inspiring. He is very functional. I tried asking myself how hed handle stuff yesterday & it was much easier than i expected! I just did what made sense, rather than overthinking it. Instead of not doing the laundry that is kept in the drawer where the skunk is living, i just neatly stacked it along the wall! I re-carpeted a niporium(catnip area), did dishes, prepared lots of food, exercised, took a walk...i just kept moving all day! It was nice! Right now im preparing my property taxes to mail instead of seeing it & dreading it!
~♡~Happy Home improving to all!~♡~
