Still Decluttering…..

This is the space that I am devoting to documenting my decluttering journey.  You can find all of the other posts here.


I completely forgot to post this, so everything you see here was donated, oh about a month ago.  I hope that you didn’t want to come to my house and get any of this stuff…….

Denton and I have started in the garage.  I don’t even know where this school desk came from!  I think it must have been stuffed in the back by the previous owners.  Yes, we have owned our house for over eleven years.  Why do you ask?  Also, I convinced Denton to part with ONE of his three weight benches.

More randomness from the garage.  Headphones that no one in my house will wear.  And bookbags……

Shoes that Liv says are too small, a Roku that hasn’t been used in I don’t even know how long, and other things that do not need to live at my house any longer.

The ever revolving stack of magazines.  I am still culling my cookbooks.  It is painful you guys…. But necessary.  I am going to go through them all again later this summer.

We ended up with two copies of Inception with our last movie haul, so someone else can enjoy this copy.  I am still replacing the doorknobs in our house.  More candles for the candle making lady.  A hamburger press – I found another one that I LOVE.  How do I describe this thing???  It has a spring type thing that allows you to pop the burger out of it after you form the patty.  It works like a dream.  So this patty maker can go live with someone else.  And they can bang it around and mutter while trying to get the perfectly round or square patties out of it.

Also, I am donating some of our multitude of dog supplies.  This harness I bought was laughable when it came to size.  No way it would fit Oreo.  The aqua colored leash has a matching collar and it’s pretty cool.  It lights up.  But I figured that I didn’t need to attrack more attention to myself and Oreo at night when he does his business at the edge of the Little Woods as we call them.  There are ….. things ….. in there that I don’t want to come out at night.  Blinking and flashing lights might just be too much temptation. 

More of my beloved cookbooks.  That I haven’t opened in many, many moons.  They can go live with someone else now.

Extras.  I always seem to have extras of everything.  I don’t need them.  I don’t need them.  I don’t need them.  Maybe if I tell myself that over and over I will stop buying all the extras.  I had to force myself to walk away from a very lovely crock pot the other day…..

Clothes,

More clothes….

And dishes.  I still have too many of everything as you can see.


That was everything that went to my local Salvation Army, sometime in May.  The donations have slowed down tremendously at my house, even though it doesn’t look like it from everything above.

I am gearing myself up for another task later this summer, now that I feel like I have my house under control – somewhat.  Do you have to do that?  Gear yourself up for things?  I am a planner; flying by the seat of my pants is not my preference in any situation.  Especially ones that need to happen a lot.  Anyway, that’s another conversation for another day.

What have you hauled away recently?  Do tell.
