I went through clothes.. well, err.. most of them..
And then Books! I brought the books I didn't want anymore to the local used book store. They gave me like $7.00 in credit, which is $7 and a half a shelf of space more than I had before!
After books I had an 'oh crap' moment- well, a room. You see, I had a crap room- the back room/craft room/stick it in there room. I had to get in there and get working in order to get the stuff into categories to continue. It was a disaster.. Even the dogs thought so.
While I was doing this, I made a "donate/trade/sell" box of stuff that was not trash, but that I did not want any longer...
It was overflowing..
And then there was my normal hoarding behavior.
Like.. paper.. printer paper I got for free or $1.
I've been posting that shit on yard sale sites.
So far at $93 more in my pocket!
I also found a bunch of change. And then I had a bag of change from the bedroom.. and the bank of change in the laundry room.. and a bank of change in the kitchen that was full- and ceramic.. and round... and on more than one occassion I have wondered if it or my tile floor would break if I dropped it.. I therefore called in my best reinforcement: the Dad. A quick text asking if the bank converts change informed me they do, but for a fee (boo). However, his other bank does it free (yay!), so I left that out for him and voila, got a $79.56 check in return.
I also determined that the old Honda's snow tires would fit his car... and made him pick those up (I mean, he was getting 5 free snow tires). So, that was the 'service charge.' haha
