The girls better behave, or they might be next
Kate at Beautiful Things has made a pledge to throw out/get rid of something every day this year. That sounded like a pretty good idea, although most of the stuff I might want to get rid of is packed in boxes, so I've been making an effort to get rid of some of the piles of stuff around here. I'm not going to go so far as to commit to a thing a day, but so far I haven't been doing too badly.
Today, I threw out a painted metal spatula that the psint was chipping off of. It came with Rex, and it still seemed useful, but I never used it, so today I threw it out.
Yesterday, I recycled our old cell phones.
The day before that, I went through all the boxes of books I could easily reach (they're all packed in the garage, I don't think I'll be able to get to the pile of books I know I'm ready to part with) and pulled out a book to pitch and four more to donate. I can alreayd hear the thanks of our future moving men.
Tomorrow: the gingerbread house that's been floating around here since Christmas, waiting for me to choose the best way for it to leave this planet. I'm leaning toward plunging off the balcony, myself.
