Been a while! I had a dry spell for a few weeks and that's okay. Since then, I've dropped off a small bag of donations and a small bag of handmedowns. Gave away a few kid toys. Took care of the mending pile that tends to live in my bedroom. I think I may have even sold a thing or two? Most of my bubble wrap packing material is gone anyhow.

Today, I gathered up 3 toy sets and 2 are already gone. I have two pieces left for another toy set to find, and two pieces for yet another toy set to find. Posted another toy for free on fb. I glanced through my closet and pulled out a few things I won't wear again/don't care that they don't fit anymore. At some point I'll deal with the stock pile of clothes 2 sizes too small, but not yet. It's too much.

I ripped up and discarded two booster seats and put those in the trash bin right away (cut the straps!). Oh and I tried to clean out the pantry by making rice krispy treats sort of, out of marshmallows and some crunch berry sugar cereal. Well, turns out those marshmallows had chocolate inside--what!!!--so I crumbled up the rest of the graham crackers to make sort of a s'mores dish? Used up those foods before they went stale at least.

Took some things to the community closet at work. Donated two books. Gave some gardening stuff to a friend.

All this sounds like a lot. It's really one or two things a day. Today's burst of finding toy sets was a welcome distraction to the power outage!
