Clean out the basement

Since I had to move all of her stuff from the storage unit here. Now I can start to go through it, though and then dispose, donate,etc. After that, I am going to start going through my stuff again and see if I can trim that down again.

of old toys and clothes to the Salvation Army today.

I’ve also managed to sell a few old computer parts that were lying around.

Really trimming the fat, here.

has been taken away. No more fish tank stuff for a fish tank I no longer have. No more dirty rug. No more boxes and boxes of broken and unplayed with toys.

Two loads. About 20 uhaul boxes worth.

Gone.

And so much room down there now.

loads have gone to the recycling center today. $20.00 well worth it to get rid of so much crap.

Not sure when to call it complete, though. Should I call it complete before or after I sell off the furniture that I’m looking to get rid of?

Today the kids and I went down and sorted through a ton of boxes. We must have at least 15 that can be tossed out. Where the basement once was full and difficult to move through, now we can actually set up the weight bench and there is a wide passage.

A few things left but almost there!

Last week I got the boxes stacked neatly and got back about half the floor space. Today me and the kids ( them mostly ) sorted through a bunch of boxes of their stuff and managed to get a bunch of trash together.

I am hoping to get to the recycling center next week and dump out a bunch of of. This spring, If I can get rid of the entertainment center and the corner desk, I will have room to setup the weight bench.

So sweet!
