Subject: RE: Declutter & Fitness - Clearing Out the House
Maybe it's because I got up a little earlier than I have recently and the sun is as bright as can be, but I've gone through some of the stuff in my sunroom and reassigned it to the Goodwill bin. Occasionally I picked up items to sell on eBay that I didn't really know enough about, and it turns out they were total non-starters. So they're gone. Cut my losses and move on.

Baking today in earnest. I started some last week but those have been given away and consumed by visitors. And if I'm going to do any more shopping I need to do it now so I don't get stuck in crowded stores and long lines (though that is less daunting than it used to be, because my time is my own if I have to wait.)

I dashed out to the curb this morning with several tied-together grocery bags filled with stuff for the trash. Some of it came out of the laundry room after that clean up, things that are worn out and not reusable and I've held onto for "just in case" for too long.

I have some electronic waste stuff and an old printer cartridge that I can drop off in the e-waste bin on campus tomorrow when I meet a friend for lunch. I'll put it in the car before I forget about it.

The new element arrived for the smoker and I'll let the day warm up a little before I spend time poking around in the bottom of the smoker getting it to plug into the power slot. Is the old element e-waste? Hmmm.
