Saying Goodbye and Letting it Go – Well, Maybe
It’s time to say “Goodbye” to a piece of my life. That piece includes the last two bits of my business – MuseTech Web. Those pieces are my email – joann@musetechweb.com – and my website – MuseTechWeb.com. I retired almost five years ago. A couple of years ago I took all my old customer files and burned them. It was a lot of burning – about 5 boxes of files – but have hung onto the website and my email. I know why I hung onto my email address. It was used in a lot of online accounts and there were people that still used it to get hold of…

It’s Time to Clean Out the Pantry
Yes, this is my pantry. There are bits and pieces of my life scattered and stored on the shelves. There’s a sewing machine and a few sewing supplies, some craft supplies, yarns and baskets, office supplies, a foot soaker, picture frames, wrapping paper, a couple of kites, paint, glue, cleaning supplies, games, paper towels and TP, stuff for the motor home, a couple of old badmitten rackets, extension cords, cook books, cards, light bulbs, photos, an extra chair, folding tables and chairs, a little bit of food, and more miscellaneous stuff. My pantry is also indicative of my life, cluttered. Normally, when you think of clutter, you think of stuff…
