How's your decluttering going?

I've added 2 more shirts to the donation pile, and a set of tights to the handmedowns. I'm coming around to donating a sentimental jacket, but I'm not there yet. Last night I found 2 hats and some mittens to be donated later today. I have to discuss other cold weather gear with Spouse before sending them off and now I want to go through the hall closet again! We have so many winter hats for a family of four.

I found out I can use a thing I thought I was keeping just for sentimental reasons. \o/

We got rid of a game console and a pile of games via selling them back to the local store. They gave us a wack of store credit, which is great for buying other people presents.

I have a box of lightly used but interesting goods that are going to be a present for a friend who likes that sort of thing.

... and a chest of Stuff that I probably won't be able to resell or regift, which either gets landfill'd or kept. *sigh* I knew this day was coming, but it's annoying that it's here.

I love when things end up being useful!

Hmmm... that chest of Stuff... maybe not regifting, but just giving away? not as a gift, just as a "I have this thing I don't use, anyone want it?" sort of giving away?

Yes! "Put back into use" is a really satisfying end to a declutter decision.

Hm, maybe? There's a specialized forum I could try. It's worth a shot.
