I opened a couple windows today as it's quite temperate out and is supposed to be quite warm later. I recalled how Piper's fur smelled after she sat before an open window for a while.
I finished throwing away my beer bottle collection. While I'd hoped to be able to put some on display at some point at the house, the "rec room", as the appraiser called the finished part of the basement, was really the only space for such a thing and my wife had it full of her stuff. Stuff that she admitted to me she would never look at again, much less go through and discard what was no longer wanted and/or needed. Plus she dedicated a lot of space to storing empty boxes because...well, I don't really understand why.
Since moving here I have gotten rid of a lot of stuff. A lot of books are gone, my dad's telescope was gifted to an astronomy student, and now the beer bottle collection sits in a large green bin ready to be recycled.
Simplify, simplify, right?
I am planning to pick up Piper's ashes today. It's going to be hard. But I am looking forward to scattering them so that she has a final resting place that I can visit.
After work it's off to see a movie and after that meet someone for a couple drinks. This weekend holds the promise of a couple concerts and paperwork. And the company of friends.
