Today is a hodgepodge of different things.
It started with going through some files and shredding lots of pages. I originally thought this might be a post devoted to file culling, but I don't have it in me to go through too many files today. I'm counting three files gone through and emptied, though there was probably more than that.
So I moved to a small storage area off our family room where I quickly found some books that I'm more than happy to rehome. Then I remembered that I had set aside some curtain rings and curtain rod brackets, so those got tossed in (and counted as one thing). And I have no idea what that round wooden black thing is (it came home from MIL's and appears to be a base to something we couldn't figure out what), so that's a good reason to let it go, in my opinion.
While there are more than 12 individual items above, I'm calling it 12 and letting it all go.
Day 12: 107 things gone
You're making great progress Becki - and you've reminded me that there needs to be a shredding session here too.
ReplyDeleteI think we'll be having a few shredding sessions before the month is over. ;^)
DeleteI emptied out our shredder last week before garbage day. It was jam packed.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly happens here sometimes!
DeleteGood for you! I did a big declutter of the house a couple of years ago but it's been coming back. Darn that love of shopping.

Yes... that is what happens, isn't it? ;^)
DeleteYou and Marsha are really motivating me! Since the Goodwill is 1 1/2 hours away and I don't go out unless I have to. I am putting things in garbage bags and tying them up real tight. I used to use shopping bags but then if they got knocked over things would spill or I would see something and start digging through the bag not remembering it was to give away. I am taking the white garbage bags to the basement and in one corner so when we are over this COVID someday I will take them to Good Will. There will be no digging in them as they are sealed up good and isolated from the rest of my "stuff"! LOL!
ReplyDeleteThat is a good plan, Sam. I hope you're able to remove the things soon, though. The relief when it leaves the premises feels so good. I know you know that, though. :)
