HI! All!
So, there's a school of thought to use plastic bottles to save potting soil in big planters. I've been saving plastic & glass bottles, thinking I'd save on potting soil...in my future life, when I am setting up raised beds for veg gardening.
I'm tired of being the bottle custodian. No more saving bottles. Getting rid of the ones I have.

2. cleared sewing room bed
3. vacuumed up couple hundred dead flies
1. detail vac the mattress cover, area & several window sills
2. sorta vac the floor with the wand, got up the big stuff, anyway
3.Bring down

1. Prepare supplies to go up
..2 rolls TP
..3 trash bags
2. Up trash taken out, tossed in 3 big plastic bottles

mouseanne I like your system of putting multiple out-of-season garments on a hanger to save space. I have more hanging space than I need, but will keep this in mind for that distant day when I have my own place. Interesting that you decided to abandon the plastic bottles idea for now. It can be so hard to prioritize the way we actually need to live now in favor of the great ideas we have for the future. While I was out mailing the check, I went to a yard sale in the neighborhood. I bought two very nice jigsaw puzzles for a friend, and a little wooden two-part caddy for ______ ?_____. Total expense was $6. So, one card/check gone, and one new "organizer" in, for a net loss of space here. Guess I'd better make this work! I'm such a sucker for trying to buy my way into organization. For the moment I'm happy about it, though.  Took out recycling and compostables. Took a short walk and mailed check from mailbox. Wrote down the route. It's gonna be an hour of just driving; add the errands, and I guess I'll be back in about 2.5 hours. Put errand stuff on launch pad. If I find the water bottle at the first place I look, then I won't have to go to the other. Inside

Multiple out of season garments. They go into two 12" wide zip up flimsy plastic hanging containers. You hang the hooks on an interior bar, a wire really, then there are 3 hooks protruding up that hang the container on a curtain rod. All the things would fit with all their hangers. My thought is, I'm at least saving the hanger weight in these things. The last 3 places I've lived, I've had brown recluse spiders. These containers gives me the assurance, I can just hang them in the closet when it is time, rather than washing everything again. I'd be hard pressed to replace them, it's the only time I've ever seen them. Might find something similar in a Lillian Vernon type catalog/website. Catalog! hahaha! Showing my age. Did a quick search found them at Ace Hardware. JC Penney link is here: Found them at Penney'sI guess I can replace them fairly easily when they wear out. |

Hi, oust and razy .  I did all the errands, and my time estimate was only 10 minutes short of the actual time. Library: Returned books and got more cookbooks. Bank: Deposited check. Target: Bought replacement water bottle (the last one in correct brand and size). Garden stores: Bought a little potting soil and coir (found coir at the second store). Shelved the books. Put away dishes. Inside
