Journal....
I am a coward! Perhaps not in a physical way. I really don't
know about that, for my bravery has not encountered that much
of a challenge.
But I am afraid to throw things awayI I am a confirmed
packrat, having the outstanding symptom of the
I-might-need-this-sometime syndrome.
As a consequence, every closet and shelf in the house is
bulging with things I continue to hang onto because I just can't
bear to throw them away.
Not long ago I was making one of my every-single-day
searches for something I put away in a place whose whereabouts
I could not possibly fail to remember, but had; and what do you
suppose I found there on the top shelf of the closet?
A large grocery bag just bulging -- with what? I dumped the
contents out on the bed. It held, incredibly, two old can-can
petticoats, a tangled mess of odds and ends of woolen yarns, and
a handful of doll clothes left over from our oldest daughter's
beloved JackieI
My bookcase contains a whole shelf of pamphlets, old Bible
teacher's manuals and booklets that I shall probably never use
again, but I MIGHT, you seel
I have endless sheets of paper filled with Bible notes dating
from many years ago until now. Earlier this year I did gather
them all together, intending to arrange them according to
subjects and file them; but I have not done it yet. These are
obviously not in the packrat category, for they are valuable to me
as reference material; but they do add to the clutter.
I periodically trim back scraggly house plants, but I can't bear
to put the trimmings in the waste basket. I invariably snip them

up and put them in water to root. Not that they DO, you
understand, but I TRY!
There are other things stashed away -- pretty bottles, news
clippings, a collection of picture postcards, magazines I might
want sometime, old Christmas cards and greeting cards of all
kinds, bits of lace and trimmings and used zippers and buttons, a
basket of wooden spools (because not many are made any more
and they might get to be valuable antiques in about a thousand
yearsl), a box of beads, a drawer full of scarves and gloves and
doodads that I shall probably never use, bits of memorabilia
tucked here and there, letters by the boxful, baskets and boxes
and drawers full of scrap of piece goods, off season plastic
flowers and foliage, piles of old beginners music left over from
the children's early lessons, stacks of business records dating
back nearly forty years ago -- you name it and I have itl
There are some things that I simply have no excuse for
keeping, like a pair of fancy shoe buckles, an old chignon no
longer wearable, boxes that rings and watches came in, old
spectacle frames, plastic boxes of all kinds, useless jewelry, old
handbags and other junk. Why do I keep them? YOU tell MET
! was talking with a Seymour friend, Inez Boyd, along these
lines the other day. She had what I consider a good solution --
potentiallyl
She said, "1 have a big box in my closet (and she measured off
about a 30-inch square with her hands, saying her collection had
outgrown a smaller one) that I call my "cooling-off box." When I
can't make up my mind whether to throw something away, I put
it in my cooling-off box for a time."
Of course, my friends, there would be the obvious necessity of
a weeding-out now and then. You know, 1 have a hunch that Inez
still has a problem. That outgrown smaller box tells me
something, and it sounds exactly like what would happen to me if
I had a small cooling-off box!
Dam site cleared, ready
for inspection
Wilbur DePauw, owner of DePauw Construction Company,
said Monday, October 15, that his workmen had finished
clearing the site of the flood control dam he has just completed
13.5 miles south of Clarendon.
He said an inspector representing the Flood Control
Department of the State Soil Conservation Office, Temple, was
scheduled to make an inspection Tuesday.
DePauw Construction Company had the contract on this
project and the cost was approximately $525,000.
This is an SCS flood control project.
The dam contained more than 500,000 yards of dirt.
The lake which the dam backs up is already full with water
going through the spillway. It is already stocked with fish and is
located on Bitter Creek, on the Lawrence Hagy Ranch.
Mr. DePauw has the contract for dirt work on two other
Amarillo projects, the Southwestern Public Service Company
plant and lowa Beef Packers, which together total about one-half
million dollars he said.
Monday, the company also began the dirt work for
construction of a condomenium complex in Amarillo.
