Another important de-clutter: my email. Time flies, and it was last January I paid for an extra year of the email at the acccount I've used for years. I changed Internet providers but knew I'd never catch up with everyone in those email accounts, so I paid for a year and decided I'd keep paying if I didn't want to switch (it's fairly cheap, ~$50 a year). I like my gmail so I'm gradually shifting my email accounts away from Sprynet. Today some biggies: eBay and PayPal.

Yesterday I did a little networking in the neighborhood. My next door neighbor Jackie bought an energy star fridge to replace a 20-year-old spare fridge in her garage. It works fine, but runs all of the time. She asked if I needed another one, but I don't, I make good use of my fridge space now that I have my freezer organized. But the across the street neighbor John has been peeved at his niece for a few months: last year she moved somewhere where needed a fridge so he loaned her the spare from his backyard shed. He used it for extra ice and storage (and we all have gardens). She moved out of that place this spring and left his fridge behind! He loaned it to her not because it was extra but because her need seemed greater than his. So I called him and told him Jackie had one for the Goodwill unless someone nearby wanted it. He was very happy to take it off her hands and we helped him load it onto his pickup for the trip across the street yesterday morning. Don't you love it when everyone is happy and has exactly what they need? :)

It's lovely outside. I hope you're all having great weather for this last weekend of summer!
