Winter has returned so the hats, scarves, and jackets I keep on a rack in the hall are back in use. They used to live in a closet where they were out of sight and forgotten. I suppose in the summer I can hang my various ball caps on it. This is a new system for me.

I'm clearing more space in my office by slowly moving cassette tapes into a box for eBay. I have a lot of them that I no longer need the contents or they've been transferred. Surprisingly, cassette tapes sell on eBay. I pop a tape into the office console, hit record with nothing playing on the radio or turntable or CD changer and it erases the contents. After a few days I have enough to list. I have a lifetime supply of cassettes around here, these are the ones I used for recording class lectures, phone calls to the cable company when the diddled the bill, radio programs that I thought I might want to keep.

On the way home I stopped at a small but well-stocked Goodwill store and found two items for eBay and one for me. I love the large acrylic food storage containers that have the silicone ring seals. I find if I don't have beans, grains, pasta and such in clear containers I forget what I have here. I've also incorporated my Food Saver for storing some things in vacuum sealable jars.

The rest of the week looks pretty yucky weather-wise, but I have none of the challenges of declutterers in Montana, Michigan, New Hampshire, Maine, etc. Except Jeri, who's gadding about the Caribbean somewhere right now. :-)
