The downside of the threat of publishing this is that they may refuse to do service on my pickup after this. It's a old truck, it needs work. I want them to pay attention and give me real choices when they call with an estimate. They have done good (but expensive) work, but failed on this one.

Yesterday I sorted the contents of some built-in cupboards in the living room that hide some things I forget about and don't use, so I'm clearing and re-thinking what is stored in there. I may make another Goodwill trip this afternoon to get it out of the house.

No takers yet on the living room futon for sale. My daughter spoke up for it, but then the date she needs it changed, pushed back to September when the friend moves and takes his. If it doesn't sell for my asking price I suppose I can hold it for her, but I'd really like the space freed up.

On New Year's Eve I don't make resolutions, it simply doesn't work. But during the year this year I found improvements that I recognized needed attention and worked on, and they end up as a nice list of accomplishments for the year, so I'll do that again. My ongoing projects, decluttering, paying bills, saving money, reaching my target weight, they will continue as before.
