Nothing to add today, but I am copying my tally numbers and saving them in case this whole thread disappears with the new "rebuilt" website release 🙁

Good work Lila!

I am going to carry your storage bin concern over to the what are you doing thread. I hope you don't mind.

Three big items out with my farm sitter.

Alright, time to get this thing going again. I am not getting rid of enough stuff.

This morning I looked around my bathroom, got rid of one container I have been hanging onto for months but not using, as it is plastic and I am trying to switch to mostly glass, and one hair product I have had for probably 8 years but don't like it but hold onto it and use it like once every 3 months. It is just taking up space on my counter at this point, I don't even like it and it will take me until I am 90 at this rate to use it up, so out it went. 2 items gone.

Lila, I think you're doing really well.

The offsite craft storage wanted all my stuff! I'm calling it a bin and a half.
With the two things I gave dsil:

I am now 1.5 bins short of my "by the end of April" basement goal.

I feel like stopping sometimes, too, SubC.

I worry my garage will become a storage unit when TotsFam moves out. We will just keep plugging along.

1 large office chair, 2 other random items, out forever.

New toys to upgrade the playroom.

We are still going, SubC!

Today I threw out 3 containers I was using but just got tired of them. Hey, it's something!

Yesterday I threw out a pair of worn out garden shoes.

Also the new truck arrived. I am counting it in because we will have two trucks until we take the other one to Ds in the fall. If I forget to count the other one out then, that's ok.

Also the very slow package of Legos to redesign my little man's house arrived, but I am not counting them in because I can hold them in a closed hand and they are going to become part of an already counted set.

So I am calling it even.

I do want to say that I put the new playroom toys neatly away on shelves in the playroom for my boys to discover.

Two large planters that have been sitting in my yard, one with a massive crack and one I just don't like - gone.

Lila,

I am proud of you for the steady progress.

I am backsliding again. I had a two net in today and brought home six finished pots and two unfinished pots.

More pots will come home today.

Working in my studio this evening - unpacked 29 pots I brought home from the city studio. I can't remember if I counted any of them (some were from an earlier box), but I have so many I'm just going to say I didn't.

I also found one thing to add to the car.

So I need to sell 39 pots this weekend.

So I took everything to the thrift store - about two bins worth. I also dropped off some books I had already counted out (included in the "about two bins worth). The little free library was very full. And very tempting. Also I spent $1 on an adorable giant rabbit bag. It is for carrying the Easter eggs for the hunt next year. It will fit in the egg bin. I am +6. Not counting a few things that are going straight in the "take to Birdy" bin and the "future baby" bin.

Sometimes I feel like I have come far enough and I just want to stop. But then I look at the basement and I know I have not. I'm starting to understand stand why people get storage units. If I had a storage unit, I could put all the holiday/dd2/"baby library" bins in it and my basement would be organized and functional by summer..

Don't worry, I'm not going to do that.

In - two books and two 4" toy chairs.
The chairs came with a replacement table and will fit in the play set box, but I feel like I need to count them because I've been pretty "addy" lately.

I am glad you are still here and staying accountable.

One box of dog meds, that belonged to my pup who died last year. Expired long ago but I could not bring myself to throw them out. But I finally did.

One thing out that I found the missing pieces to.

Good job Lila.

I am also trying to make better choices about fixing things. Yesterday I stopped and fixed one thing instead of putting it aside to fix. It took five minutes. Then I put it away properly. I started to fix another thing and realized how much time and effort I was going to put into it and how unsatisfactory the results were going to be and I got rid of it. I didn't even put it on my "replace" list.

So yesterday, besides trash and recycling, 19 things out and nine pots.

Net out: 145
And 10 pots.
