365 Days of De-Cluttering: Day 205

I'm trying to get the stuff that I'm donating out of the house quicker than in the past. I've been to Goodwill twice since we got back from vacation. I took a small tupperware egg cooker thingy to Goodwill today along with the soccer shoes that I took credit for a couple of days ago.

365 Days of De-Cluttering: Day 204

I keep all the pages that I print out for use a scrap paper. I have a lot of scrap paper. So much in fact that it no longer fits in the cubby that I keep it in. So a large portion of it is going in the recycle bin.

365 Days of De-Cluttering: Day 203

I finally persuaded my husband to give up the really worn out pair of riding boots that he hasn't worn in years. He had worn holes in the leather for god's sake. He's been using his better pair to ride in. Buy he has just as much trouble as I do throwing stuff away. He wore them for quite a while with holes in them.

I'm back in the kitchen/laundry room. Today I started in the coat closet. 5 pairs of sneakers are going in the trash. They are old and not usable.

365 Days of De-Cluttering: Day 199

Today I'm taking a whole bunch of stuff to Goodwill. Most of it is stuff I've already talked about but I'm sure there is stuff in there that I haven't so I'm counting it today. The whole back seat of the car is filled with clothes, small appliances, shoes and books. The trundle bed in my office where I've been staging the stuff to go elsewear is much emptier now though there is still some stuff that needs to be sorted through. They may be subjects for later posts.

365 Days of De-Cluttering: Day 198

Back in the summer, Larry brought home some old appliances that we had given him when he moved into his apartment. He decided he no longer needed them, probably because he had never used them. They are an old small coffee maker and a blender. I'm donating them to Goodwill.

365 Days of De-Cluttering: Day 197

The top of our dryer seems to be collecting place for stuff that I don't know what else to do with. There were about 20 samples of horse shampoo, conditioner, etc that I will move down to the barn where I might actually use them. There were two weight tapes that I'm throwing away and a dog chew treat that I gave to one of the dogs. The treat has been sitting up there for years. Don't know what I was saving it for.

365 Days of De-Cluttering: Day 196

I wrapped two books to give to my niece's twin girls. I've had these books for a long time but they've never been read. I think she will like them.

365 Days of De-Cluttering: Day 194

October was just too busy and then we went on vacation. I just didn't have time to update this blog or to de-clutter anything. So I'll just keep going from today.

Today I took another book to the library.

Our vacation was fantastic. I'm very refreshed and ready to get going again.

365 Days of De-Cluttering: Day 203

In an effort to not waste paper, I keep a lot of the stuff I print out for scrap. The stack of scrap paper is getting very tall. So tall I can't get any more in the cubby that I keep it in. Therefore, it must go into the recycle bin.
