Weekend uncluttering

[fred_mouse]

How goes the uncluttering this weekend?

I did the seasonal clothing swap today, and gave myself the challenge of only putting away what would fit in the suitcase I've been using for years (I also had a 100L plastic tub, although it wasn't full). Much sorting later, and I have a box of clothing for the op-shop. I've also included the baby sling I've been hoarding for years (youngest is 14; my nibling, who I babysat as a Very Small, is now at school).

I did try and get rid of the box as well, but partner scotched that.

Nice work on the clothes decluttering! And maybe the plastic tub can replace a less solid box somewhere and then that box can be used to hold things to go to the op shop?

Today I finished another book in my "reading non-fiction every day" project. It was a very long book so, although it was a fairly light read and I enjoyed it a lot, I feel like I've been reading it forever! I'm going to pass that on to my sister, as I think she'll enjoy it (and then she can eventually pass it back for me to donate it). Also more progress on (slowly) improving the garden.

Yes, read books and move them on. I wish I was better at that, but I am working on it.

Thanks! I'm actually a bit grumpy about the plastic tub -- it was bought cheap, with the comment that I was planning on getting rid of it when the job it was doing was done, but it hasn't happened that way. And there really aren't other boxes to replace, because I have more sensible sized plastic tubs for everything else!

Well done on the finishing of the book! I sympathise on books that seem to take forever to read. I've a few of those, where I can't read a lot at a sitting, so it just drags out.
