One's clutter...

Star spent the majority of last week sorting Yu-Gi-Oh cards. We kept two small card boxes' worth and took the rest down to the game store.

Immediately someone pounced on the new stock, shuffled through the rares box, and asked a million questions. It wasn't five minutes before some of the cards sold. This makes a happy game store owner, and that's a good thing. (The game store owner is a cool dude, and is doing his level best to make the store into a social space.)

M:tG is up next, and it's the largest collection of the three, but we're gearing up for the yard sale now. Highlights include some shelving units in various colorations and types, a fog machine, and a large box of toys.

I hope someone else finds pleasure in our clutter.

I had clear goals for the consignment sale. Only a few pieces of clothes for each kid--done. I found a coat and winter boots for one. I wandered through the books to see if they have any in the series I collect--bad idea. I saw some Roald Dalh paperbacks for $2, and a series of books that might appeal to one of my kids--8 books for $8. So...

Should the child not care about these books, off to the local little free library!

But! I did not buy any of the decorations, despite some very lovely items, and I didn't even go through the toys. I did not buy things two sizes up for either kid, just the next size up for immediate/this winter's use. Baby steps.
