Get rid of stuff

...let’s just call this one done!

...my world. For all my old DVDs and a couple of CD’s I got about 30 bucks. I traded those for the missing season (number 5) of my collection of Sex and the City and Brokeback Mountain.

I’m about to load the truck with all my junk from the basement. Huzza!

...have a basement room full of junk that needs to go to Goodwill. Ever since it got cold, I’ve let this one slide. It’d also be a really, really good idea to take all the clothes to Buffalo Exchange, to reap filthy lucre from them. I do really love hipster boutiques. It’s a bad habit.

...and get up early (who am I kidding, early is before 11 for me right now), and go to Good Will with all my stuff, I will not only have a clean basement, but I will feel good enough about checking this goal off the list.

Yesterday I took a few bags of stuff to Good Will, as my last entry detailed. Afterwords, I came home and started to clean a little and go through my papers. I really began to over haul a couple of things, like re-organizing my sewing things and my box of Christmas decorations. My first goal here on 43 things was to organize the hallway closet. Well, now it’s clean and sparkely, too. It feels really good to have all this stuff in order and know that a lot of stuff can either get trashed at this point, go to Good Will, or the recycling bin.

I took a few bags of stuff to Good Will today before stopping at the bank. I’m trying to get rid of as much junk as I can. The thing of it is, I’ve got some great stuff! So, it’s felt really good to relase it back into the system so that other people can find it. Another part of this goal is to be as organized as possible so that any move I might make in the future would be as easy as possible. I don’t want to spend my last days in this apartment or city going through stuff so that I can fit it into my truck. I would like to just move a few boxes to Mom’s, tidy up, pack, and go.
