This morning I cleaned out my belongings from the other house... I was rather surprised by the amount of them that were still over there, seeing as I haven't made but brief visits ever since I moved in over here with my father and grandmother and began looking after my grandmother after her accident. I was especially surprised since my mother had indicated that she did not believe that much of my stuff was still over there.

It took me about seven trips to move it all over here, and each time my arms were as full as I could get them.

Not all of it is in sellable condition of course... I need to go through it all, clean it up, and see what is still in good enough condition and what is destined for the recycling bins. I also recovered a few computer programs, and manuals for other computer programs that I already have over here while I was there, and I may see what of that is in good enough condition to sell as well. Currently most of it is just being stored in spare closets around the house here. I even found a couple of Macintosh programs which were given to me by the wife of a elderly friend when he died... I'm not sure what kind of condition they're in, but I'll be looking them over and seeing if they're still good, and if they are I may offer them as well. They're archaic programs, I think from around the period of Mac OS 7, but someone might have use for them even if just as nostalgia.

All in all, I'm very pleasantly surprised by all of this.

I just realized that some things that should have been over there apparently aren't... or else I haven't looked in the right place yet. At least now that I've thought of them I know what to look for. I'll have to go hunting again soon. :)

There's also, now that I think of it, some other stuff over here that is mine that I haven't touched in YEARS that I can get rid of... when I was young, my grandmother kept a bunch of toys and stuff over here for me, and it's still in the guest bedroom which is now my father's bedroom... I must have a billion lego sets in there, for example, some of them still unopened. My grandmother had a thing about me finishing the models you could build with one set before opening a new one. Unfortunately, I wasn't always interested in building every possible model with each set, nor with following the directions like a robot rather than being creative. But, in any event, it's left me with some mint condition sets to sell. Wow, sometimes I'm glad that my family never gets rid of anything unless they're forced to.
