new thoughts on keeping track of using it up

8/1/12 I finished off 2 skeins of yarn. I may have finished off a couple more while on vacation and sometime after the next vacation, I’ll do a count. I am starting to see some space in my yarn bins.

7/22/12 finished another skein of yarn and another notepad.

7/21/12 used another skein of yarn, a candle and finished off 3 notepads.

7/17/12 My sweetie started using up some of my paper once he saw it was available, though, he didn’t take the notepads in order of fewest to most. So, I now have a pad with 1 sheet.

7/16/12 I completed 4 skeins of yarn.

7/15/12 After a comment from t c & b I realized that I’m keeping paper items in different lists, but using them pretty much the same way. This morning I went through my paper supply pile and found I have 12 packs of staionery, 12 sticky note pads, 8 spiral notebooks, 2 bound notebooks and 16 pads of paper (7 of which have less than 10 pages). It seems like an inefficient way to keep track of items I want to use up. So, they are all going under the same heading.

It is also past time I start back using up those candles!

Revised list
.
soap (52 bars -35 = 17)
liquid soap: (45 bottles -37 = 8)
writing paper pads/packs (158 -121 = 37).
candles (204-73 = 131)

skeins of yarn =
