May Disposals

This list more accurately represents items discarded late May and early June. The list seems so short compared to the volume of stuff that has made its way to Goodwill in the past few weeks—a truckload FULL. Surely, much of that included disposals made earlier this year but stored in the garage. My greatest sense of accomplishment comes from the neatness of our garage as we head into summer. Notice I didn't say it was a clean garage. There is a lot of stuff in there, but it is much neater and as I stated on Facebook recently, the work bench remains the last area to tidy out there.

Today, in an effort to stay sane before the wedding, I cleaned kitchen cupboards. They are mostly done and I did a lot of consolidating. I was hoping to dispose of more, but I am satisfied with the cleanliness of the cupboards today. After the wedding, I plan to get serious about disposing of more stuff.
  1. 3 throw rugs
  2. Magic Ready Mop—although ready, not so magic and a handle that is far too short
  3. 3 sheet sets
  4. various bedding items like random pillow cases and such
  5. 11 towels—which, to be honest, will likely end up in the camper, but these towels are out of the house and the current camping towels will become garage rags.
  6. Bag of old shoes
  7. Bag full of old papers that were long due for recycling
  8. large handful of used drinking straws
  9. Two pump dispensers
  10. 1 bag chocolate Skittles
  11. Combined many bags of bits of things and threw away another bunch of bits of OLD things from the pantry.
  12. One random drink coaster
  13. Storage container parts of various types
  14. Pur water pitcher
  15. Three quart casserole dish
  16. Five water glasses
  17. Soap dish
  18. Three spray/squirt bottles
This is a total of over 40 items. I stopped counting cause some was just junk.
