Speedbump

It's been almost two months since my last post....and I found myself losing some momentum. I'm down to the things that have some emotional attachment...or monetary value...or both. And getting rid of those things is doubly hard.

Getting back on the horse today--I'm still trying to find a buyer for my grandfather's beer memorabilia.... and saw a post today on CraigsList of someone looking for old, unwanted trophies. I have 6. Loved my trophies--all from the Hampden Halloween Contest--I took first place 5 years in a row. Now when I look at them, I think of my first wife, who was (is) involved with the contest. And since thinking about her does not fill me or my life with positive energy--they must go!

Chalk another up: didn't think I'd ever be able to let go of trophies--I wanted a trophy so badly as a kid, that when I won them as adults, I was absolutely thrilled. Now: they just take up space, and in this case, emotional room where there isn't any.

Hope I hear back from the poster soon so I can get back to the culling.
