It's so good to purge

Somehow the context of such a message in that place raises a whole other set of issues...

Sometimes purging can be as addicting as buying junk. I went through a period of throwing stuff out and loved it.

I love purging. One of the most exciting things about my three kids growing up is getting rid of the stuff they outgrow.

My mother did that. Sadly, if she had not, I'd be making a mint on ebay right now.

Trust me....there is nothing I have disposed of that would have gotten one red cent on ebay. Stained, not-so-gently used, broken, missing pieces, large holes, colored on....nope, no one would be looking for anything I had on ebay, that's for sure.

This has been my project forever but it's so hard to actually do it. My biggest hurdle has been trying to figure out where all the stuff should go, I don't want to throw usable stuff in the trash but bags of clothes etc. intended for charity tend to live with me as long as everything else. This Saturday there's a Household Hazardous Waste Roundup (I'm imagining cowboys doing rope tricks) in Long Beach so I'm getting rid of a dead computer and monitor, some old paint cans, and anything else that will fit in the trunk of my car. But there's so much more left to deal with!
