A few books to the bookstore yesterday. Looks like rain today, but the weekend will get better. I have a couple of kid-free days (son decided to spend an extra night at his Dad's house since they both seem to have a Friday holiday but I don't). I'll putter indoors and make a big eBay push. If it clears I have to make a declutter-the-garden push (it dawned on me that I have a lot of things out there that need to be moved, so I should move them along to another location or to the compost heap).

We did a little sock drawer decluttering today. Once again at the breakfast table my son's "I don't have any socks to wear!" cry was met by "you have a drawer full of socks!" I took a plastic bag and emptied the entire drawer into it, leaving only a couple of slipper sox. "Which of these can't you wear?" He picked out some of his sister's socks (she wears a size 10, I can't tell their socks apart any more) and the rest are apparently too old and scratchy to be tolerated. So out they go and I'll buy some new ones this weekend.

I think this time I really will put a couple of ink dots on the toes of each of his socks so I can sort them more easily.
