I have been asking do I need this?

[blessedw2]

what a wonderful question d Nancy!!!!

I had junk k ing come and they took a dresser that no longer worked for us in dd's bedroom. They also took the oriental rug (fake but expensive) that I had no place for - I let dh decide. He said no - yay - off it went. a no longer good suitcase gone. I kept meaning to clean it etc but I am tired of it sitting in the closet as I know it's not good enough to use on a plane.

I have for the car: a good blow up camping mattress. dh is donating an old working drill as we have a new one that we got as a gift from my d brother.
a sound machine that dd younger never uses anymore. I have a computer if I want to hear water etc.

today: a large kitchen bag stuffed with garbage: shirts etc. of dd Youngers that were stained or torn and a bunch of stuff from under our vanity in the bedroom. I also took it upon myself to throw out years of dirty combs of dh's. he had them in a tar jet bag. I also took out things that don't belong there to be put in band aid area. tossed stretchy bandages that have been worn out. put myself down to one hair dryer.
