I know.
Really.
But we all have dreams.
So - although I always go ONE and ON about how i hate to own, I've been accumulating.
So here's the rules. except for food stuff, and laundry detergent like item, 1 item IN equals 1 item out.
that's the rule.
So IN this weekend were (and graded):
1. White Bookcase for Ellie's room (Daddy built and put all books in - yeah!) - $84. Could not find one on CL or Salvation Army :o( I give us a C for this in terms of environmental impact but an A for trying so hard not to buy new.
2. A watering can (does it counrt if Doug brings it in???) Sigh. Doug wants to start an herb garden. i give this project a C as well. A D actually b/c we'll kill everything. I keep saying the only thing i've ever grown from a seed that I havent killed is Ellie - which i think is funny - but it reads kind of creepy and prolife.
3. Consignment Store Jeans (size 8 "booooo", loose today "Yeah!!!") i give me an A+ for this. I'm not showing ass crack, they are comfy, they are gap stretch (so I saved money not going to the outlet) and they were $12.
4. Baking Dish ($.50, glasbake, 'retro antique, matches my set, LOVE IT!) B- b/c I didnt need it.
5. Hamper (pop up, ladybug, in Dougs closet) $2. Recycled from new. I give myself a B because i needed one, and this was reused. Not an A because it's big. But cute. As a bug you might say.
6. Baby clothes hangers. 10 for $.50. Pink. A-. Recycled. Clean. Cheap. Only an A- because I didn't need them today. but I will soon.
7. Mulch. Grading us with an A. It was cheap. Picked up at a store we were already at. Needed. No a+ b/c we being cheap may come back to bite us.
8. Herb Pots. Grade? D. damn Doug.
If 8 in then 8 out.
Getting RID of:
1. Baby's 1st Pooh Bear - NWT.
2. Small children's Book
3. Green Mug
4. "E" glass
5. Channel 2 Mug
6. William Sonoma Cookbook
7. Piglet Stuffed Animal
8. tbd - should be the flower pots but i'm having a tough time with letting them go
