That garage at the Galleria is one of the easiest places to lose your car! <br /><br />I have a theory that if I make it through the first lighted intersection on green, all the other lighted intersections will be green when I get to them. Most of the time I forget to pay attention after three or four. Boring game. But today, for example, the first light was green and I swear every lighted intersection I approached going to my eye doc appointment was green. I don't think it's a curse... except I did arrive fifteen minutes early, browsed the glasses for something to do because I forgot my book and ended up spending $665 on a pair of frames that can't be fitted with the proper lens prescription til next week. Red lights might be better, hey?

Or the burdens of our families. I'm trying to look at my "familiar and dear" in terms of how dear it would be to my heirs. And realizing that if I let it go, maybe it can become "dear" to someone else, rather than that burden to my family. It's not easy, no question. I used to watch a lot of de-junking show before we moved and the basic question was: is this adding value or stress to my life? Are we keeping things because we want to or because we think we should? (Applies to inherited items.) Right now looking to find good homes for some things and just new homes for others.
