I'm tired of the heat and ready for the change of seasons here in Austin - such as it is. Traditionally I've used the Labor Day weekend to get myself ready for the push that comes in the fall, the welcome change in the weather, and preparation for the holidays in December where I take some time off.
I just returned from a trip to Goodwill this morning where I unloaded a truckload of items from home. There were a few things in there from Sharon. The rest went over to Gerry's where they will go to a home for battered women (I think Sharon would have really wanted that - it was Lily and Gerry's idea). I had all sorts of items in that truck. Some from Justin, some from Sharon, Lily, some old stuff of mine and a few things I had from my dad. I always feel a little sad when I take things to Goodwill, but in the end I'm happy with the feeling of 'release' that comes with it too.
With a little luck I'll get my studio reorganized, do some minor rewiring and the bookshelves in the sunroom moved into the office area (finally). We'll see ... pretty aggressive but it does feel so good to see these things completed.
Tom
