cyn good work on those old oven mitts. They do seem "useful" dont they? The reality is that if you are replacing tem, they most likely arent.

Item/Clue #2
You used to wear me But now you don't Think you will wear me again But you know you won’t I was able to get rid of 4 holey socks for this one. Also, #15, something you hoard - I deleted a lot of podcast episodes that I'm either done with or have never listened to because they don't sound interesting enough For #4, something blue - I threw a potholder in the Goodwill box last week, and then finally realized it was blue and qualified for the Treasure Hunt. #8, something red - a red cardboard shoebox from some fairly new shoes; I finally put the shoes into my shoe shelf thingie in the closet #18, fill a bag of detritus dropped around the house - We store some grocery items and household supplies upstairs due to lack of storage space in the kitchen. When I come home from grocery shopping, I often poop out before taking anything upstairs. Tonight I filled two plastic grocery bags with cans and other packages, and brought them upstairs to the storage area. They aren't exactly put away, but they're in the right room, and they're out of our way downstairs. #12, something broken that can't be fixed - A battery-operated lamp that fell off its perch and never worked again; into the trash. That's about it for tonight, but I plan to find more tomorrow!

Good things come in boxes But once you unpack Those cartons are useless Recycle the stack A box of chocolates that I received the other day for Valentine's Day. Yes, they are all gone (but I didn't eat the caramels, because I don't like them). The box is headed out.

Item/Clue #3
Something new, still with a tag Not quite right, not a keep In order to return Put it back in the bag I not only put in a bag, but over the past 2 days...returned: Pkg of Beautiful printer paper to be used for something special--white with red roses border. Another pkg if beautiful printer paper meant to be used for special occasion. Beige with ivy border. Pkg of matching beige envelopes to go with the paper. All returned to Office Depot. Got credit on credit card. I had kept the rcpt. Also, 2 bras that I bought over 3 months ago. One quite expensive. Re-tried them on & decided not enuff support. Took them back to Macy's & got credit on my Macy's acct Miraculously, I had kept the rcpt where I could find it easily. Returned to Charming Charlie's: Pretty necklace that I ended up not wearing to my wedding even tho it matched the pink shawl that I bought there perfectly. I know me...may not ever wear it, after all. Also, 2 other shawls that didn't look as well as the pink one with my beige lacy dress. Although, nice--1 white, 1 beige. Got credit I credit card since I kept the receipt & tags. Attempted return of lingerie at another store but since too soon after paying with a check, held off on this because store said they would only give me store credit. And, I KNOW what happens to those.......! So even tho they originally told me when I purchased that there is no wait time on my check.....Aarrgghh.

That meal was great I love that take-out place But I don't need the container Cluttering up my space Had chick fil a for lunch/dinner last night. Most of the stuff went out yesterday. I ate the salad today and the container is is in the sink to be washed, then recycled. If you have a chick fil a near you, i highly recommend the supersalad (kale and broccolini with dried cherries, honey nuts and a maple vinaigrette dressing).

Speaking of bags Those plastic ones pile up Set a number and decide Enough is enough I'm bag deprived atm, after cleaning out my bag drawer a few weeks ago. The ones I got from grocery shopping are already gone - I had to resort to using a milk bag today!
