    Oh...stuff....it will be the end of us! Yes - the flashstick/scanned photos. I'm pretty sure that no one will look at the images more than once - and I have 12 photo albums and 6 boxes of photos to scan - that feels like a lifetime!!!!

    Looks like you have things under control, Yooly! It will hopefully be like pulling off a bandaid. Hurts for flash, but then it is over.

    Well not every photo is worth saving. How many cute poses do you need? I’m trying to digitize one good yearly son photo from childhood. One or two photos of life events/wedding/Christmas/graduation etc.
    Scenery, long gone friends, multiples of same events from different angles - into the shredder.

    Hello from down under, literally!….yes, we are on the west coast of Florida about 40 miles north of where the direct hit of the hurricane came in….no power for a week….no hot water, etc….we did have water….we lost some beautiful big old live oak trees, some shingles on roof, an entire fence, a leak in roof, etc but we are all safe….the winds and rain were ferocious….lived here fifty years and this was horrible….grocery stores are out of everything….I am never eating peanut butter again, ever!…so many are in very bad shape here….I will be back soon….internet service is still on and off….thank you for all of your good thoughts sent our way!

    Well, no great loss on the peanut butter ban Connie! Thank goodness you all survived relatively intact and safe. All the rest will get resolved over time.
    It was/still is a terrible storm for many Floridians. Hang in there and come back when you can. We miss you 😘

    I went through that on peanut butter during a recovery from surgery. My mom took my three year old son, and a friend of mine came over every morning before work and refilled my water bottle and made me three peanut butter sandwiches and left them wrapped by my chair, and refilled the cat's food and water, and on the weekends my husband came home (he was a trucker) and did the laundry and cleaned out the cat box. Six weeks I spent like that, in a non-walking cast.

    I declare this a peanut butter free zone! (I've had to give it up do to overeating tendencies).

    Hope your weekend helps you get ready for Monday, Connie. Can't imagine summoning up the energy it takes to get back into the groove when so much is still going on...don't forget "baby steps" ! Be gentle on yourself - you will do this, there is no doubt!

    Getting ready to go up and start work on a blouse for historybounding. It's very exciting because these are clothes that I can simply tie differently, lace tighter, and take a tuck in as I go down, without having to constantly fuss with sizes. Plus, they will look better on a figure that is pretty much looking five months pregnant.

    So history bounding? Kind of like a Renaissance Faire thing? Cos play?
    There’s a whole world there I know nothing about.

    Today friends with sundry relatives descended on my dining room and removed ALL the stuff! The table is bare, floors are passable again. Woohoo!
    Getting all the clutter out feels like losing a bunch of mental weight. More work to do but making some progress. Someday I’ll be comfortable in my future tiny home.
