Two pair of pants and one pair of shorts that are too low rise for me - I'm too old to worry if my butt shows when I bend over.
Several towels repurposed to rags.
A can of PAM spray that expired in 2018! I think it was recently purchased, and not languishing in the pantry...which is concerning.
Gift bags and misc wrap, again.
A few seasonal decor items that don't fit my style any longer and are aged.
I was on a roll today: two tablecloths, many placemats, six cloth napkins, one hoodie - it was put together wrong, and always looked twisted. Two generic tablets bought for grandkids in case of an iPad emergency - likely never used. One old cell phone and case. Two cellphone clips. Two.more golf shirts from hubby's closet.
Lmerullo: It certainly does sound like you were on a roll, good job!
I took five or six medium sized boxes to ARC and Habitat today. An accumulation of a few months with clothes, books, a few tools, and misc. I think for left-over paint I'm going to start with the paint hardener that HD sells. I'm getting close to selling some mismatched sterling utensils that I've inherited but have never used. The emotional attachment is almost gone.
My home had an early 70's wall mount rotary phone when I moved in. Similar models seem to be going for $50-$100 on eBay, which is sort of wierd. Undecided if I will eBay it or donate.

We hauled another 3 large bags of stuff from Mom's house today. I already have someone picking up yet another batch of Christmas cards tomorrow. I will be going through and giving and donating the rest of the stuff over the next few days.
This month was a huge clean out of craft room. Items with value are in draft form for ebay listing. Balance is boxed up for the guild sales booth, the library and a thrift shop. Husband is amazed and so am I. Have fabric to tackle but first need to access it behind other boxes of fabric. hahaha.
I have found that the excessive books and patterns were merely cluttering up my mind and making my life harder with too many choices. I do not need to own everything printed. Doubt I will miss any of them.
Gave two doorway gates to the neighbor and an extra Brita pitcher to another neighbor over the weekend. Have also been cleaning for the holidays and loading up the donation boxes for pickup this Friday.

Husband cleared out all but two ties. A Red Gold Tomato tie went to our local baker who has Red Gold as a team sponsor. Others went to a neighbor for crafting since no one wanted them on Ebay.
