The red-headed writer (aka la Raconteuse) continued to remove so much stuff from her lovely apartment; she was determined to dismantle all this nonsense in her kitchen cupboards and under her bed – and it was the second time she’d done it, and it was less than a year – all those empty boxes.
Decluttering … that was the word, as she muttered to herself, as she started to shred all those papers which were not useful anymore, but at least they would be recycled.
She had several sacks which she had commandeered from the basement, and she’d brought them up to her apartment; she’d filled them up and now she’d put then outside in her front door, hoping that someone might help her, since it was six floors down – she giggled to herself thinking, maybe she could just drop then down, but probably not a good idea.
She shut her door and went into her living room, as she sank down on her couch, then she looked on the right; there it was – she gripped her big bag, she needed to take everything out… everything! – she took a big breath, and opened it.
Right on the top was that note, she stared and stared again, still as dense as it could possibly be; ‘dense’ she thought … that’s a useful word; she smiled again, the word dense, is almost the same as Denise – she could help me, she was sure.
She was going to scoot out… this minute!

Decluttering- downsizing – whatever you call it- I think it is a wonderful idea- unless you are dense- or your name is Denise I guess… hehehehe

Hmm, yes, another problem too. Still, Denise will be in a good place to help that writer woman.

I am so pleased that you keep everything (like me, in the real world).
Plus, it’s very happy that Denise is the right Girlie (On The Edge) in the SSS, although she would never be a dense person – ever.

Words can be tricky. The author of the note probably didn’t think it would cause so much problems. Sometimes one has to spell out the ‘threat’, the ‘curse’, or the ‘instructions’!
