Comment on Day 1–Birthday Countdown by Harriet

I have enjoyed this “trip” through your birthday count-down. I have been praying and will continue to pray for you, realizing that more temptations are confronting you there than would be here.

Keep up the good work. God has promised to “continue the good work He started in you”. That is a promise you can “take to the bank”.

Love you!

Thanks for this prayer. As much as I’ve been dreading it until now, I’m starting to think you are right! Bring it, 30!

Yeah! I’m so excited you’re going to do this! I am also awaiting to hear about your first birthday in another country- my memories of those birthday are so sweet. THey are so unique from other birthdays because it’s like none other you’ve ever had, but both of mine were filled with rich and unexpected blessings. I pray the same for you.

Also, I just realized you saw both Star Wars and Star Trek. I’m so proud…

I was telling Harry that I always get the most comments on these sorts of posts. I guess I’m not the only one who struggles with this!

My sticker collection morphed into a way to encourage my students on their papers/tests. So, I’m sure there are some that are still around. Although, I’m not sure whatever happened with the Lisa Frank ones. I’m sure I’ll find them in the next few weeks.

Thanks, Jill!

I *love* to purge things. Seeing mountains of paper go into trash bags makes me unbelievably happy. I have no room for clutter in my life (or in my apartment), and I feel very accomplished when I can go through old things and throw them away. I keep things that really do mean the most to me, but I figure if I haven’t needed something in the past year, chances are I’m not going to need it in the future. And, the more you throw away, the less you have to move.

Having said that, I do enjoy the memories that come back to me as I purge. I finally got rid of my old sticker collection a year or two ago, and it made me a little bit sad to remember the two of us on your living room floor, our stickers spread out as far as the eye could see, as we made trades and bargains for different stickers.

I can relate to your angst, except that I’m not on a deadline to purge right now. One thing that came to mind as I read your post is that at least we now have the technology to eletronically scan mementos that we think we can’t part with. Something tells me that if I took the time to do that, I probably wouldn’t go back to look at the files, but maybe it would make me feel better.
