New habits/old things
Jul. 19th, 2009 09:18 amTrying to start a new habit of spending 15 minutes a day in one room cleaning out parents' & grandparents' stuff. Not much clothing except for Mom's and since I'm unlikely to wear any of her stuff, that's where I started. There's a free-standing wardrobe in the back room with mostly her dressier clothes - and some kids' clothing that niece & her sister wore - and I just took out a buttload of clothes to the car. And there are still a few things on hangers, plus two drawers that I haven't looked at yet. May do some more later on.
There were a couple of things I thought about keeping - then decided that would be kind of silly. It'd be a while longer before I even come close to fitting in them, and even though I liked the items, they just aren't my style. And someone else could get a lot more use out of them right now.
So I'm planning on going up to Elkin Monday and Tuesday to see people, but it looks like I'll need to take a trip to Goodwill first. Or... hmmm, there is a consignment shop (or two) in town. I could put everything in the trunk and deal with it after I get back...
