Stig of the Dump
While not taking driving lessons, I've been mostly sorting out three bedrooms for rubbish/jumble today. It's much harder work than I thought- I started before I had breakfast at about... half eight this morning, and continued until right up to dinner at 5. With a few breaks inbetween, heh.

It's quite sad watching all these things I've grown up with disappear into bin liners. But I know I wont use or need them again, and have pretty much grown out of them anyway. I had a plush shire horse called Boxer (after the character in Animal Farm), which I bought at a Shire Horse museum in Cornwall when I was seven. They are magnificent creatures, and I loved him so much ^_^ I must have carried him to bed with me for... at least four years after that.

But I grew out of him and he found his way to the back of my sister's plush collection (I have a fair number myself, but they're slowly diminishing), to resurface this afternoon. I don't think I'll be keeping him for much longer. He wasn't of fantastic quality anyway- his mane and hooves are all matted and there's a slight tear on the underneath of his muzzle, but his eyes are still as bright as they were.

I'm not too heartbroken about it, really- I know when I have to be objective about these things. I still keep a lot that I think I might still want, even if I know in my heart of hearts I won't need it again. Just for sentimental value.

But there's no harm in that, really.
