Room for the new

I am a firm believer in releasing no-longer-needed possessions to make room for the new. Every time I clean out and organize a closet or shelf, something special and unexpected happens.

Case in point: today I went through my clothes closet, tried on everything, and filled three garbage bags with any and all items that no longer fit or that no longer suit me (bound for a charity clothing drop-off box).

And as soon as I was finished with this task, I went on line to check my email, where I found a message saying I had been accepted into a juried show called "Women of the Cloth." !!!

Catherine, I enjoy your blog and your artwork! I agree with the concept of making room in your life for the things you want or need! Good story.

Thank you, Marsha, I'm so glad you like the blog and my work. Now maybe if I get rid of all my pennies, they will be replaced with gold bricks.
