Mid-week uncluttering

[fred_mouse]

I was a bit busy/distracted yesterday, and forgot to post. To make up for it, you get a Thursday post! How does the uncluttering go?

Me, I managed to find a home for a laptop that has been hidden in a drawer for many years. I used this one when I was last an undergrad, which was ~15 years ago, and it happened that a friend is in need of some of the functionality of a laptop, but doesn't need internet access, so this is perfect. I need to put a bit of time into cleaning off my data, but then I can let the machine go free!

Added to that, the friends who visit on Thursdays left with a handful of things -- a couple of books I won't read again with people who might read them, and two somewhat scruffy blankets made of scrap yarn which will be delivered to the Cat Haven, for keeping their cats happy(ish).

A bunch of toys out! Thanks to the collector-ish habits of their previous owners, they were either in-box or tag-on, and clean.

We took them to the toy donation station for donation to kids who wouldn't otherwise get much (or anything) for Christmas, and watched the volunteers' faces fall off as we rolled up with two gigantic totes of new-condition toys linked to popular TV series. :D

Well done on getting this done in a timely manner, so as to pass them on when they will be greatly appreciated.
