Get rid of things I don't need or love

As things cease to please me, I either toss, recycle, donate or give them away.

I could keep marking my progress on this, but it’s become a pattern and there are just too many parties to go to this season to keep this on my list.

I’m making a stack of books for my guests (tonight and tomorrow, two different couples) to go through. They can take what they want with them.

Got rid of pounds and pounds of them yesterday, in preparation for last minute guests. My tables are clear of all but the most recent issues.

Maybe I can make a box in the garage or in the trunk of my car to put old issues in as they become old issues, and then I can donate them more easily.

Ha!

To get rid of old eyeshadow. She wants to use it for a project. Very cool. I’m getting friends to contribute theirs too!

doin kinda groovy on this one. cleaned out my house and had a garage sale, then took all the leftovers to goodwill. i’m still finding a few things here n there, so… almost done!

This is covered here and there by other goals I’ve got so it has got to go!

It gave me a huge rush to go to the coffee house and scatter books around. They are on outside tables and newspaper racks where people will see them.

This makes me happy.

My friend Braveheart is always giving me the stuff that she doesn’t need or love, and I have a hard time saying no. Although I must say that I am proud of myself for leaving the orange linen jacket at her house when I left last Wednesday. It’s a gorgeous color of orange, but orange is really not a color I should wear. She says the jacket’s for someone bustier than her, but I am pretty sure that busty-moi would look like a big pumpkin in it.

Actually, the reason I’m writing this is to pat myself on the back for getting rid of a big nice basket she gave me about a year ago. I filled it with nice glassware that we never use and put a free sign on it and put it on the sidewalk in front of my house. I love that someone is getting a kick out of it. I just hope his wife doesn’t find it annoying!

Got rid of the last of the moving boxes this weekend.
