With most of my projects for February out of the way, I feel that it's time to get focused on junk removal again. I was considering waiting until March 1 but I'm ready now and I don't want to put it off. I think that as far as numbers go, I'll be aiming for 10 items per day. I'm sure that I'll exceed this amount on many days but I think it's a reasonable goal.
There are two things that I think will help this time. First is that my older daughter's birthday party is over. I had kept quite a bit of arts and crafts supplies so that her friends could make things while they were here. I'm glad that I kept it because they had a great time making their creations but now that the party is over, I'll be happy to pass it on.
The other thing is that I had my yard sale this past Saturday. I realized that, for the most part, it's just not worth it to keep a lot of the stuff I have to try to sell it. I had done a bunch of baking for the sale as well and I'm so glad that I did. I made about $130 from the baking and only $30 for the yard sale items. I was able to pass on some great winter wear that I'm glad will be getting used but as far as making money goes, it's not worth the effort. Now I'll be going through the stuff that didn't sell and either throwing it out or putting it in a 'donate' box.
So that's where things are at right now. We'll see how it goes and see what things are like on March 22.
