Link: And I've moved again!

OK, so having three blog--one for perfume, one for clutter, and one for everything else--didn't work. Dividing my attention between the three of them meant that at least two, and possibly all three, were going to starve.

So everything, including the clutter posts, will now be at ChickenFreak's Obsessions. I hope that you'll visit me there.

Declutter Of The Day Has Moved!

Declutter Of The Day has migrated to a WordPress blog. All new posts will be posted over there, and I'll slowly be moving some of the old material (mostly the essay-like posts) over as well. So, please, update your bookmarks to the new site, here!

DCOTD: Books

So I might go back to the declutter of the day format on Declutter Of The Day. Or I might not. But I will today.

New rules: Any decluttering progress will do as a post; it's a decluttering diary. And photos are optional.

So, today: Identified three books to give away and a place to put Books To Give Away.

DCOTD: Mostly Books

Today we got some of the stuff from the last post permanently disposed of, and I dropped twelve paperbacks in the "sell" box.

That is all.

DCOTW: More Stuff

This decluttering was last week. And the stuff isn't actually gone yet. But in the front hall, awaiting FreeCycle listing or a walk to the dumpster, we have:

• Three trash cans. (Yes, the cans themselves are going.)
• One dead shredder head. (Detached from one of the three trash cans.)
• One dead electric kettle.
• One half-dead DVD player.
• One kitchen stool.
• Three boxes of small miscellaneous junk.
• One big cooler.
• Several rolls of gift wrap.
• Two keyboards for computer types that we no longer own.
• A big stack of cardboard.

Maybe I'll double that stack tomorrow. And take a walk or two to the dumpster.

DCOTM: Stuff.

Decluttering Of The Month. Because I've been slacking off.

Searching my memory, in the past few weeks, we've gotten rid of:

• A big Playmobile dollhouse, to a friend young enough to actually play with it.
• A box of miscellaneous kitchenware.
• A big batch of curtain rods and other curtain hardware
• A bunch of DVD boxes.
• A box of paperbacks. (Well, they're in the car, but we've resolved that they're never coming back in the house.)

DCOTD: Bulky Stuff and Miscellaneous

Last week and over the weekend, we (actually, Himself did the work) got rid of:

• Two twin mattresses and box springs.
• Two twin bed frames.
• One big plastic pallet that stuff was delivered on this winter.

Oh! And:

• A Stack O Shirts.

And in the realm of recalcitrant trash:

• Recycled a bunch of cardboard, including breaking down boxes that have been lurking for a long time.
• Gave a bunch of packing peanuts to UPS.
• Threw out a backlog of ripped-up bubble wrap and other unrecyclable packing material.
• Dissolved a herd of dissolvable packing peanuts.

Woohoo!
