60. Half a dozen or so new born shirts - all to boss for her charity.

 

90 to go. That seems like a lot! But it also seems like a lot that 60 things have left the house.

Oh great I miscounted earlier, so 115 to go, except I just got rid of:

 

12 pairs of shoes (to SIL for her kids - does it matter that I got 6 pairs from her just today, in sizes that will fit my kids next?)

2 pairs of shoes and a pair of snowboots to donate

yet another holey sock

3 winter jackets (to SIL)

"store" playset consisting of empty pantry boxes and cans. Recycled.

 

That puts me at 96 to go, over 1/3 of the way there!!

 

To Do items include:

  • large bag of clothes to take to consignment
  • pile of baby stuff to send to a friend of mine who needs it for when her new baby arrives
  • a wobble horse to either repair and use, or donate back to our citywide swap
  • hangers
  • using candles that have sat unused for 5+ years (I'm donating them if not used before that time)
  • using a lotion and a foot scrub that I haven't used in 6+ months (or else trashing)
  • my eldest daughter's stuff that she keeps not putting away
  • my middle one's size 4 clothes need to all come out of his drawers
  • patch two pairs of pants that have sat unworn for months and months
