Yesterday I made the first run, of many to come, to the recycling center (paper and cardboard) and the thrift store in the great clean-out of my saver parents’ home. I chose the thrift shop that benefits the senior center, which seems appropriate. The task to be continued, but my body feels lighter already. If you missed Excavation: Part One on my blog, you can read it here.
I am a Pacific Northwest native transplanted to the southeast for 36 years. In 2012, I returned to my childhood home and fell in love with this corner of the country again. I am a grandmother, a storywriter, a teacher, an attention payer, a hiker, and a back roads wanderer. Check out my website (and my memoir) at www.gretchenstaebler.com.
