swedish death cleaning

Acorn is going to town cleaning the workshop; or as Frank calls, it our "plunder room..."  Like Texas has pirates?  Plunder?  Arrrrrrrrrr!

A good week of work on the farm overall.  Bookkeeping done, doctor appts all good, farm animals doing well and Blind Hog is bringing home nice dead oak logs from our next door neighbor. Cutting ands splitting all those will keep him busy!

Bees have been checked and moved, a bit. Both hives survived the winter and the farmers did not feed them.

Received the new baby monitor cameras and base unit- working like a champ! Under $90 so that is even better.

Tomorrow will be more cleaning of the workshop, should be warm enough so Acorn can roll up the big door. Hot damn!

Sam even caught himself a big old groundhog. Happiness everywhere!

In episode #6 of The Clutter Fairy Weekly, Gayle Goddard, professional organizer and owner of The Clutter Fairy in Houston, Texas, explores the “clutter life-cycle”—a way of framing the psychological issues related to clutter in terms of the decision-making that happens at various phases in the life-cycle of a possession. She also responds to viewer questions and feedback and reviews the 2018 book, The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning.

Farewelling founder Karen Bussen invites therapist Grace Y. Lin to tell us why we should make a little room in our lives for a conversation about death and dying. Turns out, it’s a gift to your family and it helps you live more mindfully right now. Grace gives us strategies for taking control of our own narrative (at least the parts we can control!). She helps us make a mantra to remind us of what’s most important in life, and how we’d live if we knew for certain our time was limited.

Grace Y. Lin is a Licensed Behavorial Therapist practicing in New York. To read more of her inspiring work or to start your own Farewelling Worksheet, visit us at the Farewelling site.
