I freecycled! 2 years ago

Or actually e_cycled—through our local, independent recycling email group.

We had boxes of scrap wood left over from the theatre/barn building project. The workers tidily tossed all the refuse into one big pile; Jimbo and I more tidily sorted it into useable wood and true junk. We ended up with 5 good-sized boxes of cedar chunks and 2×4 pieces.

I listed them on the recycle group yesterday morning and they were picked up from our front porch last evening! Actually, I could have given them away 5 times over.

Getting rid of stuff is addictive. I’m looking around and thinking “what’s next?” :)



Multiple pathways out of my house 4 years ago

Where is all this stuff gonna go?

• thrift/charity shops
• library (books, cds, magazines)
• consignment shop
• ebay customers
• the trash

Stuff is slowly disappearing. I have to remind myself (and Jimbo!) just how much has been digested. There’s been tremendous improvement but getting and keeping the house clear is an ongoing battle.
