I started to tackle half of one big closet. It contains a lot of the kids' toys, from when they were little. They take up a lot of space.......but dang.......they are good, well-made toys (albeit plastic).
Like this "Macdonald's softserve ice cream center". For me, the biggest objection is that it has anything to do with Macdonalds......but otherwise, it's sooooo cool! And sturdy-made plastic front loader and dump truck, etc. Maybe I'm just not ready to part with them yet. It's not like my children (25 and 27) are anywhere near having children (not even married).......so I can't keep feeling like I need to keep them for grandkids. I know once they are out of the house, I will forget about them.......probably......but getting them out of the house....ah, there's the rub!
I've gotten rid of sooooo much lately. I think I'm just not ready to part with these yet, and I should trust that feeling......maybe.
I just wish they didn't take up so much space.
And maybe I'm heartless.........but picturing another child enjoying these toys doesn't help........
