The @NYTimes is on a roll.
For the last several weeks, articles and newsletters have discussed spring cleaning, decluttering, downsizing, cleanouts and the stuckness and emotional heaviness we all feel when it is time to deal with these tasks (which is usually past time).
Read the articles and then put your thoughts and new information into action. Call Sheilah! can assist with any and all. Downsize, sort, organize, pack, supervise the moving crew, yes, we do cleanouts, and more.
Some of the most common things we hear on or after the job are:
"I`ve been agonizing for 7 years, and you got this done in 7 hours."
"Worth every penny."
"We should have gotten rid of more...should have listened to Team Call Sheilah. Their expertise is invaluable."
"Not sure why I waited, but I am so relieved."
"They just made a very challenging situation so much easier"
There`s more, but you can read the rest on the Google review site. Better yet, Call Sheilah! We will be happy to brag about it!
In the meantime, don`t hesitate. We all pay for these tasks one way or another:
Body, Mind, Spirit, Check Book.
If you are fortunate enough that your check book can take the hit, bring us in for the task so you can tend to and mend your body, mind and spririt. We will do the rest.
Call for a free thirty minute consult. We are booking up quickly.

It was a privilege to deepen our collaboration with @evergreenmeadowacademy. Last month, we assisted their mission by providing essential furnishings for a family in the Sullivan County community.
One of my very generous clients (they all are) donated and paid to transport beds and bedding, a kitchen table and kitchen supplies, decor, dressers, rugs, paper goods, laundry detergent, and so much more.
We love this work so much. It was fun and rewarding, we made new friends, made some people happy, had a great road trip, and of course ended up with a client turned friend for life.
If you would have told me 10 plus years ago that I would love this business, the clients and the work (most of the time 🙃), I dont think I would have believed it.

Last month my client at the legislature asked me to ship tshirts back to the supplier.
We pulled 8 cartons out of their basement, counted the shirts, packed them according to size, and schlepped them to FEDEX.
We loved this job because it was the last and final task for @corinnecarey BECAUSE the governor just signed the Medical Aid In Dyning Act in NYS. A 10.75 Years long campaign of tireless activism lead by the dedicated and relentless staff and volunteers, all impacted by suffering and prolonged agony of no options except suffering.
For more than a decade, the campaign to pass the Medical Aid in Dying Act in New York went on. The staff worked with thousands of New Yorkers who opened their homes, their hearts, and their final months to this movement which culminated with the NYS Legislature and Governor finally listening to families navigating the harsh and daunting realities of terminal illness.
This law is about compassion. It is about love. It is about the freedom to make deeply personal decisions about our own care.
Congratulations to all. Cannot wait to see where you land next.
I couldn`t really wrap my head around this. Anyone?
For visually impaired people and for those who are not and are confused by the message:
Six recyclable bags containing hundreds of plastic bags. The smallest canvas bag says
"STOP USING PLASTIC"
Make it make sense!
Please!
Also, Call Sheilah! if you have collections like this, ones that are no longer serving you and are certainly taking up valuable real estate in your garage.
We can help you let go of those items if you are open minded and willing, with humor and understanding ... and also with our ability to take it away and pass it along to someone or some entity that may actually use them.

Are you in big box stores looking for storage bins priced at $10 to $50 each so you can store your new holiday stuff or dearly departed grandmother`s belongings in storage units, renting for $ 100 to $400 a month? Cause thats what has replaced the holiday aisles at W, HD, T, & L ... a $50 billion industry and growing.

Last week, movers were scheduled for a client whose home was adjacent to Thacher Park.
When the client contracted with this outfit in October for a December move, there was no discussion about the length of the driveway and what the conditions could be if it snowed. There also was no discussion about the width of the driveway, how low the trees were, the wires on the NGrid polls and such.
So, when the mover showed up, they couldn`t get the huge box truck up the hill, and they left.
Yup, they did. Lesson learned. Always describe the driveway in detail, especially if the mover is not doing a walk thru prior, altho we highly recommend that regardless of how simple or small the size of the move seems.
Upon the abandonment by the move crew, project management/solutionist skills took over. We swung into action, called our favorite Junk Hauler, had him come and we came up with a plan to get the job done.
We plowed the packed snow down to the gravel;
We applied magnesium chloride to melt things;
Brought a covered trailer, a small uhaul and the Call Sheilah! van the next day, and loaded the stuff into all three vehicles.
We had the client moved and unpacked 36 hours after the moving truck pulled away.
Thankfully the client`s attitude was "don`t sweat the small stuff." And "It`s all small stuff."

It’s no secret that people are suffering. Sometimes it hits our community or ourselves.
Because I have what I need, like so many, I constantly ask, “what can I do to help?”
In the short term, for me that question has a simple answer. What can I do about people who don’t have enough to eat? The answer is a partial but useful solution: I can share what I have while I can. I can also ask and organize others to do that
too. Call Sheilah! does that often and well, with so many of the things our generous clients donate and share.
Call Sheilah! did this specifically with food and funds to address, in a small way, the food scarcity horrors that so many of our neighbors are
experiencing. I asked a few select and generous clients to assist with our support for a local institution @sheridanprep, an Albany Public School, has its own food pantry for their families living in harm’s way. We dropped off supplies and funds. (Funds are actually more valuable for food banks because they are able to buy $15 worth of supplies for $5)
People are starving and struggling and while being generous at Christmas time should be a real thing, being generous, thoughtful and deliberate throughout the year, has and is more than ever, a massive need.
This week, we dropped off culturally specific
food for Sheridan Prep’s pantry. I shopped at three different markets that provide
culturally specific staples and comfort foods--not just items that are familiar to
the dominant culture, but food from Latin Bodegas and Halal Markets on Central Avenue. Everyone deserves to eat, and everyone deserves choices that are familiar and comforting in some small way.
If other businesses and individuals continue to take actions like this frequently, not just in November and December, we will have an impact on the communities now. If we all work to dismantle a system that only values wealth, we may be able to see our way through the current horrors and lay the groundwork for a healthy,
justice filled community in the future.
If you have questions or want my assistance in organizing your own action, you know what to do. It’s in the name: Call Sheilah!

Thanks @gabriellain109 and @albanyjcc for a really fun time and great networking event.
We talked about downsizing, latkes, moving, packing, how much crap everyone has, ate candy and everyone loved my dear mother`s Mah Jongg Menorah. She left it to me when she passed 20 years ago. Thats a good thing...cause I bought it for her in the first place.
Great work and thank you @lisamelisa13
