I can confidently declare myself a gatherer of stuff! Anchen, on the other hand, travels light.
The gemorst I've gathered in the short time we've been at our current house is currently being carted away by the bakkie loads. ...and it takes hours and hours and terrible back aches to get everything out of the way. This moving abroad is very different from just moving house.
For the first time in my life I'm leaving behind my plants. This is horrifying, but I hope the people who buy our house will look after them with the same love. (The selling of the house is a different topic - one of much prayer!)
There are also the things one cannot just dump at the 'asgate'. We're taking pictures and advertising on Gumtree (www.gumtree.co.za) It's a snazzy site to publish anything for sale - with specific focus on the Cape Town area.
(By the way - we've considered a garage sale, but realised that it will only result in one spectacular party and even though we would really welcome the party, I doubt we'll do much with respect to clearing some of the stuff away!)
