Swampy, I'm naturally a night owl, so your all-nighter doesn't sound all that bad to me. I used to make my neighbours laugh, at my old place, because they'd see my lights on all night long, with me painting the walls at 4am, yup. But if you want to toss them, feel free! I changed the title, to reflect our weekly event. I have a box of vcr tapes that are just itching to party - once I unearth them, that is. WTG dancing cats, getting into the party mood!

Don't you girls ALL realise if you just get together and pool those candles and melt them you can make one good candle? L ol, I have boxes (and boxes) of old candles for remaking candles. I actually do that sometimes and enjoy it, but I have way too much wax so should at least get rid of the colors I don't like. Plus excessive numbers of votive holders in which to burn them. So... I can supply some of the table decorations.
Speaking of vacuums, I still have the first one I every purchased 30 years ago. It no longer works well, and I have 3 others that do... but the old one still sits there. The other day I realized it never occurred to me to just get rid of it. Maybe it can be used to clean up after the party.

I added a nice pair of white pants (too small and vermin ruined) We always have to dress nice for the party - right?

You'll have to excuse my . It's going to be fashionably late. The crapp-o-la is being bagged but I actually don't have trash pick up. But the Hubs got a new job. Now we can actually afford trash pick up! I am really quite giddy about it. We need a Smiley that does the Cabbage Patch. Because that's what I did when I realized I could get trash service again. I know only you guys will understand my excitement.

Well, some people just like to make an entrance. My party pack is all packed up and gone. Now it's time to plan the next one. First up: move a mountain, to get at my vcr tapes. Yes!

Cheers! Better late than never. I have a hoard of old VHS movies living in my garage. When they end up on the floor out there (always) I step on them and they break and make a noise. Let me save myself the trouble of breaking and getting rid of individually in this manner.

Def6, does it sound strange to admit that sometimes I *want* things to break, so that I can throw them away without any regrets? Weird, but true.

You know you've been at this awhile: when you pick up an item…. realize it is broken or chipped and smile about it

ROTFL, Kimmy - in the olden days, my rule was: If it's free, it comes home with me! ARGH! But, I do have lots of beautiful plants around here, that I found in the trash. Now I just have to pick through the rest of the stuff...

I helped my friend throw away stuffies that her dear departed pet had played with, hope that counts. You guys are so funny and enthusiastic, it's wonderful to see. Thank you!

Angela, you bet - everything counts! And as far as me being funny goes...it's either laugh or cry, right? I'm sitting here having a great time, while I've got years' worth of dust surrounding me. I know, get off my butt and do something about it, right? Ahhh, tomorrow. Yup.
