I folded laundry and noticed two collars fraying on my shirts. Why was I keeping them? They were tossed.
Hole in my underware! Glad I bought some new ones!
I advertised a freestanding wardrobe that use to be in our mudroom. Hopefully will have some interest.
Gave a big bag of wreath frames to one cousin and a bag of paper crafting supplies to another cousin yesterday. Cousins were happy with all the “stuff” I gave them, glad it’s out of my house.
Going through some holiday magazines. They are in excellent condition and if anyone would like them I'll be happy to send them out. Just PM me.
They are kinda handy to pass junk off to!
Decluttering magazines and memorabilia to make room for more books
. Is that really decluttering?

This week is my "Stay-cation" and a big part of this week is to declutter/organize some things.
I will share here my plans and what I accomplish.
My plans:
* Clear out DVR from old recordings. I tend to record everything!
I have a few things from earlier in the year I want to go through and delete.
* Clean out and organize coat closet.
* Clean out and organize linen closet.
* Go through old magazines. 1 hour per day. How many will leave?

I just packed up about 8 gift bags to give to my niece, along with the tissue paper that was in them.
I folded them nicely and tucked them all in a bigger gift bag so 9 gift bags gone.
My niece has 4 kids so she is constantly going to b-day parties.
Also just went through and deleted the Rose Parade which I taped on New Year's Day!!!

DH has just taken a whole ute load of flattened cardboard boxes to the recycling centre.
I will have a load from my friend that I am helping to declutter before her son's engagement party. I have been there twice and took stuff away each time. I will go again Wednesday and probably do a drop off before I head to my dad's.
A very large suitcase is being donated. I will fill it with a few things that I found while setting up the study. I am not sure what to do with luggage. We need to keep it for our occasional trips and I have 2 bags for DrillDance. 1 onboard bag for quick trips and a larger one for when I go to Nationals and am gone for a week. It is such a pain to store.
In the fall I will donate some coats. Hoping to find an adult "coat donation."
I see a lot of them for kids but not so much for adults.
I marked on my calendar in September- pull coats from coat closet to donate.
Also have some of my dad's stuff from his coaching days that my brother will take:
* A wind breaker
* A sweat shirt with high school name
* Wool baseball pants.
If I found the top to go with the pants- it would make a cool shadow box.

Annie, check local shelters. They often take coats for adults. Also, high-schools have adult sized kids. Most are very discreet with handing out used clothing. We had a used clothing closet at the school where I taught.
I didn't get rid of anything, but I decluttered our dresser. Yay!
