Not tatting related(kind of) for Michelle

Michelle, not tackling a mountain, although it 
actually was.  I was dismantling a mountain.
I am a "pack rat" and have a huge area in our 
room to "store" stuff.  So, this first picture shows
the mountain(since last year in May).
 There is a large dining table in there.  I started in 
the center underneath(not sure why, but it was a 
start).  And then in the center on top.
 I then cleared the whole left side of the table off. 
And on Wednesday I got all of it cleared off and 
out from under it too.  Then I got the table taken 
apart myself(NOT easy!!) cuz' it's very heavy-I 
think it's oak.
 Then I replaced it with a different table and have 
since rebuilt the mountain.  ;)
Everything from the center to the left end of the 
table, plus those boxes with the Christmas trees 
on the left is all tatting, or for tatting.  ;)
The stuff in the front has to be gone through and 
most has to be gotten rid of.  I am pleased with 
that, but....I just had to go get a bunch of stuff 
from a friend's house who just got put into a 
nursing home permanently and I now have to 
figure out where to put it all.
So...there is my explanation of dismantling a 
mountain.
Have a wonderful day!!! :)

I would help, but my hubby is already complaining about all the stuff we just inherited after I got this much re-organized. ;)

I understand, my mountain actually is hidden but I've got one, too, and always wonder why it's so difficult to get rid of things...

I have a mountain I’m avoiding tackling too.

I think I can add a similar pile, I have a hubby who has no idea what I have hidden under the beds

Wow!!!! It's nice to know that I am not the only person with a "mountain"!!!

My hubby wanted me to tell you all that he wants to get together with your hubbies and start a group "Men Against Mountains"(of course he is just teasing). ;)
