Subject: RE: Summer Declutter & Fitness - JULY '13
Have to pick up a prescription at Tom's doctor's tomorrow over in Somersworth, so figured I'd come home via Goodwill in Dover so maybe I should fill up a few more bags and get them loaded into the car.

Started with the lower left hand section of the built in hutch next to the unused front door at the end of the kitchen.

Kept a few things that I want to give to friends (lab glass that one friend uses for vases, etc.) and a few things that I think I can sell, but wrapped up a whole bunch of vases, candle holders and miscellaneous glass containers (all quite nice, I just don't USE them) to de-accession tomorrow. Plus a Dirt Devil vacuum and a nice insulated pitcher that was the same pattern as a set of ironstone I used to have.

I know there's plenty more in the other lower section, but I don't feel like moving the stuff in front of the doors.

Ran a load of dishes through, emptied rainwater from a couple buckets and emptied most of the garden soil out of the wheelbarrow and the big bucket I intend to use to move composted goat manure. Then extricated some well composted material from a washing machine drum that was a bad idea to use (twenty years ago or so) because the top opening is too small. When I get all of it out (and spread on the garden), I'll take the drum to Harding Metals and convert it into a couple bucks. Should take a load up there one these days anyway.

Cooking up some rotini for a pasta salad for tonight's dinner and then I'll head up to the store and see if I can get a fan for Tom to use at night. That should guarantee the temperature drops...

Just been getting tired and frustrated of not accomplishing anything because it's too hot and humid.
