Exploring my own creative expression and building things that help people.

The idea was to take a week to go through everything I own and get rid of as much stuff as possible. It’s taking longer that I thought.

I’ve had some great help from my friend Carolina. But it looks like it’ll take at least another week.

There are moments when this is absolutely torturous.

Today was hard. It’s bad enough having to cleanup a space that has become the domain of semi-feral cats. Cat detritus. Cats fighting, fucking, and farting and leaving signs. They used some of my good coats as shredding posts. Then there is the smell. I thought I liked cats.

Where to start?

OK. Make a list. First on the list? Cleanup. When I bought this place, I dumped the accumulation of decades of stuff into it. This week I’m going through everything I own and toss.
