Don't really do resolutions

Jan 05, 2009 10:09

But I do act on epiphanies. My goal is (and has been for years) to lighten my load. I'm still not sure how to exactly turn off my sentimentality or my I-might-need-this-7-years-from-now thought process. But I have managed to accumulate about 6-7 boxes of stuff to get rid of that I originally thought I'd have a garage sale for. Then I thought I'd ( Read more... )

camera is a Nikon D40X SLR
filter: polarizer standard, some additional filterwork post shoot.

Good luck with your lightening... I always seem to accumulate so much crap!

Oh, I'm so glad to hear you use a Nikon. I've always loved your shots, and I've been looking at Canon and Nikon DSLRs, and I've decided to get the Nikon D90, so the quality of your work validates my decision.

I figured polarizer! That's on my list of must gets when I get the camera. I have polarizers in my house, but they won't be the right size.

That's right, you were very much into collecting before you moved into such tight quarters. You can understand my plight. Thanks for the good luck!

WOW... you know it!
I also have a HARD time letting go of stuff I "don't need" anymore, then over the past two years dealing with some family deaths, I have acquired even MORE stuff... still in boxes in the basement!

Good luck to you in doing this... its something I need to try too!

I have a friend who's mother is a great coach for getting rid of stuff, but no matter how hard I try to get her over here, she's yet to come. She's helps you realize the sentimental attachment is really doing anything for you or your memory attached to it.

I think this sort of thing really is more productive if you have someone over your shoulder saying "do you really need that?!"

Good luck to you as well!
