    ok, you win. You win “smallest bathroom!” contest. Yes I am competitive.

    our smallest full bathroom is 2.9 ft.². Your small full bathroom is 2.4 ft.²

    congratulations!

    ok, what about a coat closet. Do you have a coat closet? I have a very cute and small coat closet by the front door.

    Thank you, thank you, I am so proud! I would like this for my prize please:

    We do not have a coat closet. We only have one largish closet on the second floor. That is The Closet. I did get custom-sized wooden "lockers" that are right inside the back door, so those have similar functionality to a coat closet. I'll have to find a picture to post.

    Cautionary tale. My dad and his wife cleaned out his sister's house after her death. They found literally piles of RX pain killers and other controlled substances. They thought the responsible thing to do was to take to the police or maybe they took to the pharmacy and the pharmacy called the police. Took them a long time to convince everyone that the drugs were not theirs and they wanted to responsibly dispose of them. Dad was in his 80s at the time. Not likely to happen to anyone but it scared them a lot.

    Today we are emptying the pantry and checking out all the "food" that is in there. Last "closet" to clean out.

    I buried my parents' old painkillers in the dirt on their farm.

    We have a drop box just inside the police station door, in the antechamber before you actually get into the station, so you can deposit meds relatively anonymously. I imagine there are cameras, and someone might look into it if you drop off a great big bag of fentanyl or something, but I wouldn't be worried about a more normal type of drop off.

    Wow. I just started to deep clean craft areas. I have 6 huge clear garbage bags for one charity and two full for my quilt guild's show this fall (they have a booth to sell such things).

    I am giving another stitcher a Xerox box of full of cross stitch patterns and items which she can use, give away, sell or whatever. She can use any money she would get from doing the work.

    A big bag of punch needle stuff to another friend.

    Did a deep clean of the food pantry and found that my hubby had already done a good job but still found old rice (thankfully I labeled the container of Pie baking rice used for blind baking).

    I guess technically I decluttered one of my wisdom teeth last Tuesday. Haha. Had jaw pain and swelling for a week prior and knew it was probably a wisdom tooth. Figured at 53, that was the last thing I would have to deal with. Nope!! Dentist last Friday. Oral surgeon consultation on Monday. Removal on Tuesday. Thank goodness it all went quick because I would be stressing too much if I had periods of waiting in between procedures.

    I also got rid of two oral pain mouthwashes. One was OTC and the other was prescribed. Too minty to use for the recommended amount of time. Within a few seconds, I had to spit them out.

    So glad you got rid of one of the teeth!
