A Trip to Goodwill

I keep trying to go through my boxes and bins; trying to consolidate and get rid of things I do not want or need. I have an entire bin full of little bridesmaid gifts I collected over years of being in weddings. Some of the gifts never made it in that box; they were jewelry or useful things like books or photographs. However, I have very little need for figurines and overly ornate picture frames and t-shirts with the names of couples who have now divorced anyway.

I give a lot of stuff away using Freecycle, but often I feel like my time is too precious to even bother with listing the items and communicating with someone to come pick them things up – especially when half the time they either don’t show up or cancel. So, several boxes of things are going over the local Goodwill when I leave in a few minutes to see mom at the hospital.

Holy cow, I wish I could be in the non-packrat mood more often! Now, I need to take this attitude over to the storage facility and get rid of some of the bigger items. It would sure be nice to be able to rent a smaller unit.
