Less Stuff

"Now that the daylight fills the sky, we lift our hearts to God on high; that He in all we do and say, will keep us free from harm today!" Pastor Bob, at Camp Christikon, used to have us sing this in a round when we went up for the weeklong, family work camp. It was early morning, our pancakes were getting cold and he was directing the cannon from table to table and back again. My kids still tell that story! We are off to Cheyenne today to get the rest of our stuff. My bed set that Construction Man bought for our 25th wedding anniversary, my mother-in-law's china, and lots of books in boxes in the garage there. We rented another house in Cody yesterday and started moving our stuff from the other rented house last night. When people die they leave their stuff. Seems like there is lots of cleaning up after folks even after they are gone. I never much wanted anyone else's stuff. Really just wanted them. Not too sure how to avoid the dividing up of people's stuff cause we all have it. LESS STUFF perhaps... If you move alot you begin to have less stuff! Another lesson in this moving around and being so unsettled all the time thing!
"Now you listen to your mother... people are more important than things!!"
