adairToday I dropped of six bags of Stuff at the Humane Society Garage sale. This is big; held once a year over Memorial Day. It takes all kinds of Stuff, but this year my donations were limited. Four bags were clothing; a lot of white shirts pulled from my closet, some colored sleeveless t-shirts I never wore, and about a dozen scarves, some from the mid-sixties, that I had not used in a long time. I probably could have included more if I took more time about the sorting. I also had a bag of plastic and padded hangers that I no longer use, and a big skillet and a wok that I did not use. Removing these did wonders for my pan cupboard. I had no idea that getting these out would make such a difference.
We also made effort to deal with the miscellaneous plastic containers in the kitchen. We pulled them from various drawers and cupboards, sorted them by size and function, found most of the lids, and declared locations for most of them. Some have been designated for the garage, in the workshop area, a couple have been put in the recycling box.
In the plastic sorting process we cleared a 4-drawer (wire drawers) cart that has plants on the top. The wire drawers are used to sort the plastic containers, hold a lot of sponges, and various kitchen cleaning items, - a lot of those scrubber pads. The big drawer also had a lot of bottles of water that I had bought, put there, and mostly forgot. We needed the space, and needed to use the water, so as many as I could fit went into the refrigerator. I keep a special bottle for water that measures the amount drunk on my kitchen table. I usually fill it from the tap (we have good water) but I will try to use the various bottles of water to fill it until I use them up.
