Well I did go back up today, I honestly have no energy or motivation, I'm really tired. But I did go up and really just moved things around to make room and left some things for when I go back up to go through and then discard. I was also thinking that there were too many bags out there for tomorrow morning garbage and I'm afraid the garbage men might not take them. I am glad I did go up and get something accomplished. Just really drained today. Earlier I went out and mowed part of the lawn and my back started hurting. Tomorrow is another day. I kind of feel guilty that I didn't throw anything away today, lol. For me and the attic Day 4 is over.

If you have things that someone else could use you could take it to goodwill instead of leaving for the garbage man. Goodwill will come out for large items in good shape.

Also I read craigslist want adds and there always people who need furniture you may even sell a few pieces if you want to or need the money. I have both sold and bought things on craigslist with very good results.

My Mother always told me, when one door closes, another one opens. I have used this phrase many times in my life, and it is so true. Try not to dwell on the past, but the sober, exciting life ahead!!!!!

I am just about finished, I can't believe it. I went up about 8:30 and just came down 4 hrs later. Got maybe 1 more day in the attic, Hooray!!!! The task I thought I could never do is just about done. 6 bags later for garbage & 4 bags I will bring to hospital for kids there. Onward I go to next task. YAY!!!! I am realizing that no task to too large when you break it down bit by bit, one step at a time.

Day 6 is today. I probably will finish today. No more posting though. There is much more to do in each room but the biggest project is completed. Next big project is garage but that's the last thing on the list. Onward to the rooms
