AWESOME.
Love it!
That about sums it up! Think about it, we have so much stuff, we have created an industry to clean it up and store it all!
Awesome post, Katy!
You make me laugh. =D Love it.
Amen Sister!
I love it!
Collectively, it is tons, isn’t it? Just think of weighty difference just a few of us can make. We are in this together!
Simple, to the point and so true.
In our family we call it ” the old pile of tin” in honor of Grandpa’s garage. Bits and pieces saved from prior projects or discards were available to fix or renew anything, just add a dollop of imagination, and sometimes a little paint.
I LOVE The Story of Stuff! We emailed it to anyone who asked us where we were registered for our wedding last year. 🙂
One of my favorite posts, ever! Thanks for the laugh, and the excellent advice.
