Thread Name: Declutter & Fitness - Clearing Out the House
Subject: RE: Declutter & Fitness - Clearing Out the House
Shredding and filing and finally putting account information (printed from the sign-up pages or screen captures) in the proper notebooks. Generating a lot of paper for the recycle bin and have run many pages through the straight-cut shredder in my office. (This is one I got for $4 at Goodwill, it has an "auto" setting that my previous one, same make, didn't have, but I sold my previous one for $25 on eBay. Go figure.)

I've returned to regular scooping in the back yard and observing the yard wildlife. A newly excavated tarantula hole appeared overnight but I also found a dead tarantula (adolescent size) about five feet away. It may be unrelated or may be a smaller male who didn't survive the most recent dating encounter. The fence is going in slowly next door and I'm giddy at the thought of having the new fence and finally seeing the real size of my yard (there's another part of the fence that needs relocating, down near the creek). I'm going to replace the fence on the other side of the yard soon so they're all the same age and condition. The last fence was put up in 2005, so something put in now will be sufficient for whenever I get to the point that I might want to sell the house. Not something I foresee now, but something to keep in mind.
