Keep the Memories, Lose the Stuff

This is the book I went to the library for because many influencers recommend it as a good place for more information when one is decluttering our own memorabilia plus the stuff we have inherited or been given as gifts from family and friends.  You know what I am talking about--some simple thing that has an emotional attachment--but now there just may not be space for it now.  

This book has 30 pages of Resources.  

The most important task is to tell the story that this thing triggers, and write it down.  Then take a photo.  Will that be enough of a memory for you?  

I give this book 5 stars.    
 

Yesterday's Gone: Episode 1

This E-book has been in My Digital Library since June 20, 2015.  

 It is science fiction/fantasy so I have given up on the expectation that the ending will be sensible. 

It gets 2 stars.  

 

Only Time Will Tell

This e-book has been in My Digital Library since November 6, 2015.  

Aagh! I hate how this book ends because you know that there HAS to be more to the story!

And there are, six more books in The Clifton Chronicles.  

I remind myself I have been decluttering books this year by reading the books on my shelves, and I still have 286 more books in My Digital Library as part of the 407 on my Goodreads Want-To-Read list, and right now I am not interested in adding 6 more this year. 

I might have given this book four stars if it did not have such a cliff-hanging ending; but I dropped it to three stars.   
 

it's Hard to Make a Difference When You Can't Find Your Keys

Finding gems, like this book, are a reason I often pick up the book next to the one for which I was looking at my library.  It was located in section 648.8.  I renewed it two times and took pages of notes from the questions asked to help me break through my resistance to actually starting many projects I moved when my husband and I downsized 7 years ago.  Yes, my "going-to-do" needed grounding and put on the actual schedule.  There is progress.  

I highly recommend this book.  I gave it 5 stars.     
 

Grave Talk

When you need a good laugh about a difficult topic, this may be a book.  It helped me recognize how awkward I am when someone I care about is still grieving, and I just want to get on and see they are feeling better and done with the grief.  

4 stars for I might recommend it to a friend.  

I downloaded it to my Kindle library on October 3, 2024.
