Thread Name: Declutter & Fitness - Clearing Out the House
Subject: RE: Declutter & Fitness - Clearing Out the House
Day two in the sunroom: I've rearranged some things, flattened more boxes, and stumbled across some wiring items I was looking for a while ago, including some I don't need any more (I'll put them on eBay). I no longer need to install phone jacks, but I bought a few extra data port jacks to wire around here and I can't find that bag now. I did find the wall plates that work with either phone or data jacks, so everything I need is somewhere in the house.

I've managed to stir up some dust around here but after a sweep and vacuum that room will be a pleasure to work in. I'm thinking about putting up a shelf above my packing materials to place the TV in that room (I have them on in a couple of rooms as I work back and forth, watchinglistening to the same program). The shelf location happens to sit above the jack with the data port. This little smart TV has WiFi but would stream a better picture through my wired network.

This work has also contributed to a bag of discarded e-waste - it's filling up enough that tomorrow I'll take it to work to the bin put in place by the company the university contracts with to recycle, reuse, or destroy e-waste. Better than to the landfill and it saves the Goodwill the bother of recycling it. (In the US they handle a lot of the electronics recycling collection in large cities).
