    Well, my effort at dying linen tablecloth went bust. I cannot get the color to stop washing out every time I put them in the washing machine. It is sad because the one pillowcase I made from tablecloth was really lovely.

    Decluttered a box of books that I held for sentimental reasons. Going to the library sale. Down to one shelf of various books. Found a first edition of a Tom Baker (Dr. Who fame) autographed in 1999 when we were in London. Forgot all about it.

    Found quilt panels for a friend and group, patterns and kits to sell on ebay, and an vintage doll bed to fix and give away.

    Every time I start to investigate a closet or drawer, I find more things to eliminate.

    I acquired a pair of shoes from the local Facebook giving page, thus cancelling out the giving of shoes.

    Jame, thanks for the info! I wish they were here, but they aren't yet. I did let a few neighbors know about them, so maybe we can change that...

    Apparently Ridwell takes pet supplies (also kitchenware, clothes, electronics) occasionally. There is a monthly charge, but it's worth it if it saves me packing, hauling, and off-loading goods at my local thrift.

    The back of an earring. Not a big thing I know but it would be hard to get on, and would fall off and always annoyed me.

    I actually could sell the crate for 20 online. I sold the other 3. I wouldn’t pay to give stuff away.

    Whatever gets it out of here with the least fuss is fine with me.

    I understand Jane that physically dealing with junk is difficult. Fortunately that isn’t a issue for me yet.
