Well I was going to go for it today and get the dust bunnies. I didn't. I got stuff done but not to the level of the bunnies. I did get some of my autumn decorations out and set up. I have managed to misplace a rather large Terracotta pumpkin. I bought it many years ago while traveling through the mountains of Tennessee. I have babied that thing for many years so that I would not break it. Well it is missing. Have not been able to find it for two maybe three years. We have two barns, did have three, and we have looked in those barns to no avail. Tonight I went down stairs and looked in my basement. No pumpkin. I still have to look up stairs. I really don't think I put it up stairs but I will look. I even looked in Rubbermaid tubs in the basement thinking I might have put it in there for "safe keeping". Not in those either. Now how in the heck can you lose a Terracotta pumpkin that is about one cubic foot square and probably weighs eight to ten pounds? It is becoming a challenge for me to find it. That and I am getting really ticked off for misplacing the darn thing.
I sure can't wait until I get a space big enough to have a garage sale next spring. Since I have been married for 38 years to a pack rat and now I am finding that I have become one too. Crap has to go! That said, the pumpkin was not one of the things I wanted to go. I have been trying to throw stuff away every day. So far so good. Maybe just maybe I will move something and my dear lost pumpkin will be under the thing that I moved. I can only hope. If I don't get rid of all of this "stuff" I am sure you will see me next season on, Hoarders!
Got to go, it is nearly time for the Sandman. More later.
