Wow thanks! Sounds like my your house is the house I grew up in. My dad was a single parent and I played competive traveling soccer so we simplifyed but now as an adult I find that I have just too much stuff and my children are to say the least spoiled rotten LOL, They are the first grandchildren and great grandchildren and the family is very giving. So that is the begining of my problem. The second part of my problem is that I hate to get rid of things because I might need it and we are on a tight budget and I am afraid I would be unable to purchase it again if needed (plus feeling it would be a waste) We have enough space I suppose although the setup is not right we have 2000 sq ft and only 9 rooms they are quite large and do not contain closets so that poses a problem for storage. We have alot of toys, clothes, and books around not to mention all the baby stuff right now.
Thanks again sounds like a great group. ~~Niki~~ ~Too Blessed to be Stressed~ Please join us @ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2002 1:30 PM Subject: Re: [JFC]: Newbie > Welcome Niki! > > Sounds like you've got your hands full with homeschooling and keeping up with > 2 toddlers and an infant.
