Preparation for Vancouver

One of my ongoing goals in life is to do things that I have never done.

THIS is my first home swap!

Spring cleaning early, must clear table tops and make some space in the closets of our small home. First phase was shuffling things around. Progress was slow. Had to read my preferred articles prior to tossing magazines, had to repair useful broken items, wash almost everything, consume older pantry items and finish "too much" paper work.

According to the hobbits, "mathoms" are things we don't really need but cannot bare to throw away. Had to sift through many mathoms that I had squirrled away. Found some things to pass along, and some things that were third-hand and were too old for the good will.

Am beginning to think house swapping might be good, even for the soul. (except I haven't had enough time for my ocean dips and sunset walks!)

There is no doubt it will lower my CO2 footprint!
