Ok cyn ill add the gift bags. Maybe i should add the rolls of gift wrap from the bedroom. Theyve been sitting there for a year, waiting for me to use them as drawer liner. When i ever get around to lining the drawers, i can buy one roll from the dollar store. That would be after another clothing purge which is a while down the road. BetsyMarie i love the fridge, yes definetely bring some food. Thanks for the reminder, i should check the frig and see what needs to go out.

BetsyMarie, you gave me a good idea with the fridge: sure enough, I have 4 empty milk bags in my milk drawer. Gone. And thanks for bringing the food, too. Whoo hoo, this is going to be quite the night!
I'm also bringing some old hair conditioner, so we'll look real pretty at the party.

Oh come on!!! THE GIFT BAGS??? I have been reusing those for years! I even have a dedicated, labeled tote in my gift wrap garage shelf. I have a container of Christmas wrap, one of everyday wrap, a box of premade bows, a box of ribbons, and a tote of tools--paper cutters, scissors, tape, stapler , etc. it's even neat!! I'm just glad I didn't make it to the store to purchases a $10.00 tote for used tissue.
Shush!!! It's all ORGANIZED and NEAT!!! I NEED IT!!!
The 5 year old yelled on Christmas morning, "I got this gold bag last year".
Well, it still had his name on it!! He'll probably get it AGAIN next year

Di if you use them, theyre organized, you can actually get to the storage space to use them, then i dont think you need to get rid of yours. I buy gift bags because i think they are pretty. I have a box of them sitting in my living room, never used because i think they are too pretty. Those have to go once i can get to them. P.s. Maybe just the gold one?

Frig cleanout: limp celery, wilted spinach, 3 bottles of old, not going to be used any more condiments. if i dont like it, why did i put it back in the frig??? Its not like the cats are going to like it. Bagged up the trash. With the kitchen trash, that will be a full black trash bag. Also bagged all the donations to drop off on the wat home from therapy tomorrow. Need to take care of the boxes or i might just drop them outside in the can tomorrow. Taking a break to eat and decide what my next steps are.

Ok I am joining in even though I don't really want to toss any of my treasures.
Gift bag type contribution: 1x cute Pottery Barn paper carrier bag Beauty contribution: 1 x gluggy nail colour pen in BEIGE (what was I thinking???) to go with cyn's conditioner Food contribution: 2 x past use by packs of Asian instant noodles, complete with sachets of seasoning, oil, soy sauce, chilli sauce & fried onion. (Someone told me that the noodles are great with tuna, but I have never been game to suggest this to my foodie DH.)

Hi Louie, yep, I am pretty sure there is a VHS player somewhere here, but not sure if I will be able to find it in time for the party. Thankfully I can say that we sold the top of the line Sony Beta video player a few years ago now, tell me about that 1982 music video....
