I managed to clean out the main floor of our playhouse. The garden cart’s pieces, a tarp, and a plastic container are now in the screen house. I cut up the box the cart was shipped in. The rest of the items are currently in the raised planting box. I moved the play oven to underneath the rafter, if the Servpro staff need more room to put items from our basement, I’ll clean that out.

I think the screen house also has enough space for storage, but not our regular shed or garage.

Put a bunch of paperbacks with rather small font, Cliff Notes, and a coupon flyer for a supermarket we don’t shop into the neighborhood little library. Should put also that college flyer in there. Mentioned to person operating the Giving Tree that Ridwell is collecting textbooks this week. I donated a wooden basket and a can crusher. I doubt anyone still uses can crushers, but at least it’s no longer on our property. Hopefully she activates her Ridwell account in time.

Also ordered some twenty gallon trash bags, should also buy some 13 gallon ones.

As part of my 'what else can I clear out' jag I'm on (goal: get it all done by November), it occurred to me that I've been putting shopping receipts ad similar in shoe boxes, and putting them in the roof space for over a decade. In which time, I have *never* pulled them out. Today, I pulled them all out, and various small boxes that won't be used for their original items even if we ever move again (eg. the ones the kettle, the skillet set, and a tea trio came in). 

About half the receipts have gone in the compost, layered with soil, and several buckets of water poured over them. The rest will go in through the week, as eldest adds a bit of soil each morning. And about two thirds of the boxes are in the recycling bin (flattened). The rest might go in for this pick up cycle, but we'll see the night before we put the bins out. The rest will go next week. 

I've also identified a handful of children's books (Bobbsey Twins, Trixie Belden) that I don't think any of my kids read, and I don't love enough to keep. Still to run those past the rest of the family though!
