in which beachlass attempts to take her own advice
Fell off the radar for a few days
IN: Just a couple of magazines, I think
OUT: 23 cds
I tried applying the 1/5 rule to my cds this morning with moderate success. When I was tidying up, the cd shelves were getting too full to put everything away. So I counted up our cds, and there's a little more than 160. I decided to aim for about 30 to go away, and it was hard, hard, hard. My first pass through the shelf netted me 13 cds I didn't want. So I went through them again, asking myself when was the last time I listened to each one. It's been more than 10 years for a lot of them. Or others that were gifts, and I've never opened.
So.
I didn't make thirty, but I'm still pleased.
