Decluttering progress

So, a group at the Kid's school is having a fundraiser rummage sale next weekend, and we took the chance to get rid of some stuff.

So far the totals are:

  • 3 boxes to rummage sale
  • 3 boxes and two dresses to upscale thrift store
  • 5 (i think) tubs to the childrens resale store, who keeps about 40% of what I take. The rest is in the 3 boxes that went to rummage
Last night we went through 5 more mega tubs of clothes.  About 80% is going away, the rest is staying.  DH found clothes he can fit into again, so he's almost got a whole new wardrobe.

Two tubs of kiddie cclothes are going to a friend of mine, whose grandson just moved to town.  What he doesn't need goes to the resale store, and what they don't buy is going to Rummage.

We need to hit the "guest" room (aka storage) and the basement, but I don't think we'll get that done before the sale.  I should ask if the Kid's old preschool is doing a rummage sale this summer.  I wish we could do one here, but with the hill our driveway is on, and only having one folding table, it's not really feasible.  My in-laws have a family sale every summer, but I haven't been invited to participate for a few years now (ever since it moved from Sister-in-law A's house to Sister-in-law B's house.  B doesn't like me for some reason.  She feels free to discuss the sale while I'm in the room, but ignores me while doing so.  Bitch.)
