I gave away a computer! And it was one of my most beloved ones. A girl I work with wanted it soooo bad. I wasn't using it, and she will use it. She just picked it up, and promises to take good care of it. Computer + monitor cleared about 30 cubic feet from my garage.
I thought if I could part with one of my more treasured items, it might be easier to subsequently part with a few lesser items around here.

Awesome! That must have been hard, but I hope it is a weight lifted off of your shoulders.

I do feel better giving this away. I spent a ton of time and money troubleshooting it and replacing parts on it, and then once it ran perfectly I was no longer interested in it!

Hooray! It is out of your area and it is getting used! I say that is the definition of win-win! Congrats to you.  |

It's been a great week for me, thanks to all you girls. Just now I threw away 8 home made VHS tapes, instead of worrying about converting them to DVDs. Old PBS specials, old golf tournaments.

That is very cool. It must feel awesome to know that something you were not using will make someone else so happy AND clear space in your living quarters.

Good Job Shopgirl!! and so kind of you to give to someone in need.  When I talk of purging my DH always says "There are people who can really use this stuff".He is right of course. It is amazing how blessed I am and there are so many who really need things.I love when I can give directly to someone who can use some of the excessive stuff I need to get rid of ,it's like a win/win if you know what I mean. Love,Laura  |
