I ran across entertaining things from the cross-stitch design that I did for my mum (two roses for a stole) to my parents' house design. I also found a piece of paper with some quotes I liked (and still do). Obviously, I was looking at "tree" quotes.
I thought I'd post them here so I can throw away the paper...
"The stronger the winds, the deeper the roots, and the longer the winds, the
more beautiful the tree." - Charles R. Swindoll
Trees are the earth's endless effort to speak to the listening heaven."
-Rabindranath Tagore
"Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a
leaf." - Rabindranath Tagore

Anne, I do cross-stitch, too.
And don't you love being about to get rid of "stuff?" So liberating!
I actually am really digging the quote treasures you unearthed - I especially like the first one today!
Strangely enough, I love cleaning closets. And I'm just OCD enough to enjoy cleaning out & organizing my jewelry workbench just as much and I do actually making the stuff.
I do love cleaning out stuff and throwing stuff away. Organizing stuff in general is fun. But I do have to be in the mood for it. It helps to have a good movie on in the background.
Watching Monk or The Transporter helps because both of those main characters are finicky, which gets me in a finicky mood.
The Transporter is finicky, gosh I didn't pick up on that....I was too busy watching him move; all that oil...does he speak in the movie too?
A little bit. It's easy to miss if you're focused on the oiled muscles. ;)
Not the roll top desk!!! Arrrrg!
But I must admit, it doesn't suit as much as it used to . . . I will allow it. ;-)
Our roll-top desk is on my list to sell, too! How did you find a buyer? I figure I'll just try Craigslist.
Aileen, you "inspired" me when you got rid of your childhood furniture. ;)
Bel, I hadn't gotten around to posting it (was going to post on Craigslist, actually). I just lucked out that a friend of mine mentioned he wanted a roll top desk for his new house.
