& Stilly, to answer your recent enquiry - Sandra, are you still donating or gifting craft stuff or did you finish that work? What is the end goal, to simply clear where you're living now, or are you eventually moving also?

hmmmm. I live in a small apartment block (20 apartments over 4 floors)- 38 stairs to climb, with an extra 10 when I leave by the back door to take out my recycling & rubbish & I have chronic back & leg pain. I'm still finding homes for stuff, & I do need to move one day, but the effort is too hard. Real estate prices are crazy, we have a housing crisis, but my renovator's dream would be worth a fortune if it was empty & could be painted etc.

Today at Craft I made a little felt bunny & gave it to a knitter friend who likes rabbits! I have a lot of craft material & unfinished projects etc that need sorting & distributing.

I've been working on unfinished craft projects - one was from 2008, according to a photo I took at the time, oops! - including other felt toys which will soon leave for a hospital gift shop where a friend volunteers.

But there is still a lot more needing sorting

One big job is sorting the stuff on the floor - I do have unoccupied shelves that can take the floor stuff, then I could vacuum .... sigh
