Inherited a 3 bedroom house from my mom and it was full (overfull) of her stuff. My house had 4 full bedrooms. Both had full garages. Like you, it’s just stuff- not trash , though some was old mail and magazines.

I have big trash pickup every Wednesday. I usually put things on the curb on Saturday and Sunday and much of it is gone before the trash people come. I like knowing that it’s going to someone instead of a landfill.

Other items were donated to a local organization that runs a thrift store.

About 40 bags of clothing and bedding went to my cleaning lady. She keeps what she can use and the rest goes to her church. They offer it to people here and the rest goes to the border. We tease that in a few months we will turn on the news to see everyone at the border dressed like my mom. ❤️

The ‘mementos’ or items that i feel nostalgic or sentimental about - I’ve learned that it takes me 3 times of interacting with items to decide what i definitely want to keep and what can go. I’ve also learned to be ok with that. I can narrow from 10 boxes to 7, then to 5, and if those sit in a closet for s year before i do more, so be it.

As an American, i support this plan.

Look that up in your Funk and Wagnalls!

You must work where i work, in public education. Too many administrators without enough to do, who just keep stirring the pot and then scheduling meetings about the shitstorm they created.

When do we get our refund checks?

And we put Emily in Paris on in the background when we’re distracted out sleepy.

Barry Manilow- Looks like we made it.

Bethlehem, PA?

Also Dallas morning News put one out and you can always go to vote411. I thought I’d be able to get through it quickly but I’m an hour in and not done choosing yet.

Eta- sorry. Just saw you included the dmn one.

Should we build a wall around the HQ?

I suggested that we should have cheers day instead. Activity Pub.

🍻 Cheers!

Early voting begins here Tuesday! Let’s make the news for good stuff instead of bad! I’d like to buy that Texas-shaped jalapeno grill tray and not be ashamed to use it.

You could get an extra shower curtain and hang it at the ceiling to help keep the steam inside the shower. Maybe stick a space heater in your bathroom if you want it warmer. I’d turn on the vent fan afterwards to help get the moisture out to decrease risk of mold.

Hoping my son ends his break with us.

Making a decision about retirement and hopefully not regretting it.

How about the shower?

Kids are wild. One minute they’re dumber than the dog and the next minute they surprise you with something super thoughtful.

That’s what i had for dinner last night and tonight and i will probably make soup or enchiladas from the rest Saturday. It was $5.49.

I went to Cuba. We got donations of helmets, cleats, bats, etc. from a baseball academy here to give to a school. A couple of vets donated food and meds that we took to an animal shelter. We talked to a lot of interesting people and it was a really fun trip!

Here’s a video of the setup. Other videos said that they used people instead of rolling them out like the building facade because this field uses natural grass so they have to limit the number and weight of the carts. One guy said he applied for the job and was chosen with about 500 others. They had to be able to tolerate a 50 pound costume for 5 hours, practiced for two weeks, and did not get to watch any of the game.

I watched it Monday morning and i thought it was fun. The logistics of getting everything on/off the field so quickly, plus the part where he fell through the ceiling, is crazy. The trees were people!
