It Should Be a Lesson To Me
Day one of my vacation.
I decided I could not live
One more minute with
A cluttered garage.
I would like to say that
It is someone else’s clutter.
It is not.
It is all mine.
I threw my husband’s clutter
Away many years ago.
I spent an hour and
A half bagging up junk. Some
Of it never made it out of the
First bag from a thrift store.
I did not care. I re-bagged it
For another thrift store
Without taking it out
Of the bag.
This should be a lesson
To me to stay out of
Thrift stores; but
It isn’t.
