Dec 17-18 card kits

I found these in my gift wrap bin.  I am slowly trying to use all that crap up too!  In fact, I'll count this as 2 days because i know i threw away some old bows and wrapping items. So, I brought these to craft group and gave them to Heather.  Heather has 3 kids and counting so she needs all the entertainment she can give them!

Dec 15 and 16- 2 handmade items

I made both items.  I really like the purse but it is too small for me.  I gave both items to Scott's cousin in the present swap.  I drew her name and well, she got extras.  Yes, I also got her stuff she specifically asked for.  Actually, this Christmas I got everyone too much!  EGADS!  My budget is blown. 

Dec 14- measuring cups!

 I found the silver measuring cups in the closet upstairs.  Like in the far back corner.  I have never seen them and I have no idea why they would be in the closet that has mostly clothes in it.  Hmmm.  Rats?  do they move things like measuring cups?  Anyway, i got rid of the grody white plastic ones with no markings left. 

Dec 13- nutcracker

I may have listed this before.  Amanda, if you read this, I am sorry.
So my sis-in law gave me this awesome nut-cracker.  Well, Scott tried to use it when his nutcracker broke.  Let me assure you that this is a bad idea because these things are decorative and maybe could crack a peanut but not much else.
I could glue it but really I need to let it go to more capable hands.

Dec 11-12 cleaning the scary CD corner

 Who listens to CD's anymore really?  Well, I cleaned the scary dusty computer room CD cabinet thing.  I am counting it as 2 days because I got rid of all the empty cases and I got rid of all the dumb shit I will never listen to again.  Really, Playaz Circle?  Where did that come from?  Scott probably bought it in a gas station parking lot and i am sure it is high quality with insightful lyrics but realistically we should give it to the thrift store so the needy can have music too.

 After photo!  now i can frame something and stick it on the wall!

Dec 10- ceramic tools

I took ceramics years ago in college when i was a baby.  In clearing out items i have come across a stash of tools and I have set them aside for a lady that does ceramics in the neighborhood.  she was excited but she really shouldn;t be.  It is about 20-30 bucks worth of perfectly good tools though. 

Dec 9- a shirt

This is too big.  Hillery gave it to me and its an XL.  a normal XL is okay but an old navy XL is close to being a walmart XL.  What does this mean?!!!!  Well, it means I am dainty by old Navy and Walmart standards and I am a cow by anywhere else.

Dec 8, laundry hamper

This thing pops open to be a hamper.  It was from the college stuff at target that pops up every August.  I'm sure this was in the clearance and I never ever use it.  So the thrift store can have it and put something in it or sell it or whatever. 

Dec 7- mardis gras memories

One of these is something I have never seen.  The other says Mardi Gras 1996.  I'm sure it is filled with some awesome stuff but I am more sure it is filled with terrible stuff.  I think that's pretty close to when i didn;t drink.  I DO know i had a grenade from somewhere and got super wasted.  I should save it but its been in a gross rat turd box for years and then in the gross mildewy basement before i got the de-humidifier.  Basically I think it would ruin the machine it went to live in.

Dec 6- exercise ball!

oh exercise ball...I hardly used you.  I thought about it.  I wanted to do more crunches and stretches and things but i guess we weren;t a match made in heaven.  For the past 6 years or so you've been hidden in the attic, with mice and rats nesting all around.  Your sheen is not so shimmery and well, you are GROSS! 

I kicked the ball out the door and hoped it would blow away.  Then i moved it closer to the street in hopes someone would take it with them.  Maybe it will be gone when i get home.

Dec 5 my memory of Andrea and Randall...

 No, not really their memory, but the trinket they gave.  Actually their wedding was awesome!  Simple, in a friend's backyard, bbq, cake, and well, it was fun and not a lot of stress!  I dont think i even gave them a present but maybe I did.  I feel bad if i didn't.  Well, they can skip giving me one! 

Anyway, i kep change in this for a while and then it had Q-tips and then it was in a drawer and then on a shelf being empty and hidden.  I need to send it on it's way now.  Bye little shot glass!

Dec 4- flip flops

You can't tell but the bottoms on these are like 2.5 inches tall.  so they're like giant geisha shoes i should wear with socks or something.  They are silly and i haven't worn them since the closet got buried.  I know this because they were in the bottom back corner of the scary closet. 

Dec 2-3 clothes swap!

 Erin had a clothes swap this weekend and I brought all sorts of stuff, but most of it crap.  A lot was too small for all of us due to the fact that clothes get tiny when you dont look at them.  I also brought a ton of bags.  Erin is a hoarder so she accepted almost all of them!  Bwahahahahahaha.

 This fleece body suit was particularly hard to let go of. 

Dec 1- kone vaccum

I ended up giving this to a coworker.  He just bought a house and is so sad and pitiful and without clutter that i had to help him out.  I make messes too big for this little guy so i let it go.
