Re: February Declutter Strategy
Someone seems to have stolen our recyclable trash can ... .. hmmm. Perhaps we'll find out something different has happened, but that looks like the situation right now. These are the big, roll-arounds, same as trash cans for picking up by hydraulic lift trucks. The only difference in our area is that they are a different color. Anyway, it's certainly going to cramp my style until we figure this out and/or get a new one!

Re: February Declutter Strategy
Harriet, in hilly areas a lot get floated away around here. Could it have been carried downstream?

Re: February Declutter Strategy
d harriet I am sorry your recycling bin floated away. we have rolling large bins for our recycling, garbage and compost (from the city). One day our compost bin disappeared - lol we it showed up by a miracle in late spring. we put our number on it and our name - lol we would love to know who the compost bin fairy was!
we don't want anything to crimp your style.

Re: February Declutter Strategy
I have only a few things to bring to declutter/donation shop - I think I will wait until next tuesday to make a drop off.
wishing you all a wonderful time decluttering.

Re: February Declutter Strategy
Consider donating books, magazenes, dvds, & puzzles to nursing homes, & hospitals when decluttering.
I purged a notebook style calendar , and old [Not current] Faith Happy Planner this mo.
Took a printer & paper [that was for it] , we were not using to the donation drop off place this week.
It freed up quite a bit of space!
Kitchen Zone needs my decluttering efforts next.

Re: February Declutter Strategy
made a run to donation centre yesterday:
2 seat pads in great condition.. the gel type that we used on one trip 2 years ago and that was it.
some dog new stuff
new but not used baby cards
I am getting rid of the downstairs shelf. I got rid of enough that I don't need it anymore.

Re: February Declutter Strategy
Never got back to report that my recycle container reappeared. Ds had taken it to do some work on the things stored from my parents' house. No, it couldn't have floated away, Twins'. I was really stumped. I'm happy the boys get some work done but good grief, tell me, lol.
Dd has been doing lots of work in her room and closet.
