What a wonderful inspiration you are glenda! I have no thad the time to browse your entire site here but what I have seen I am soooo very impressed with your spirit and tenacity for living life so positively and purposefully.

You are such a brave woman, and make us all so very proud, wishful and hopefuly for our own little girl who has CP ~ Megan. She is 8 years old and is our world.

Thank you for proving to us all that ~ You can do it yourself. It must be such a wonderful feeling to be so task oriented and so successful.

Congratulations Glenda

Warmly,
Nidia

Thanks ladies! I felt uplifted seeing it this morning; like there’s room for newness and space to think and to let ideas flow!

Great idea about scanning the keepable papers, Mary. They get so dusty and musty. I’ll scan them, one day.

Karen, the picture frame is in a safe place, waiting.

I’m looking forward to next Saturday to continue the task.

Hey Glenda, great job on the office! I’m in the process of going through papers slowly but surely. Last week, I got rid of most of the IL Hands & Voices stuff. That felt bittersweet, but good!

Hang on to that picture frame–we’re gonna fill it in May!

Hi Glenda,

Congrats on tackling this job! I did a similar purge when I moved offices – and you’re right, I was able to ‘let go’ of a lot of the things I had from old jobs.

One – it’s probably out of date by now.
Two – it’s taking up valuable space.
Three – I need to leave room for tomorrow’s treasures.

[One of the benefits of having a scanner is also being able to digitally store things I think I'll need again - so if you have one, consider scanning and tossing the copies of things you DO decide to keep!]

Hugs,

Way to go, Glenda! I hope you feel a great glow of satisfaction. I love getting rid of stuff – I always feel lighter and cleaner when I’ve dumped a bunch of things I no longer need. And it does feel like you’re making room for the future when you get rid of old stuff that’s past its best-before date.

I feel very confident about your future – you’re so focused and determined that I can’t imagine you not achieving the goals you’ve set for yourself!
