I went yard sailing on Friday, something I usually only do on Saturday. I went to a couple and did some other shopping and on the way home, found one that I had difficulty locating the first time around. While I was browsing I overheard the woman holding the yard sale that this was for the youth group at her church. I told her I had some stuff at my house and I would be glad to donate it.
I have been doing my yearly cleaning out and had a pile of stuff in the spare bedroom. I knew my local thrift store was not really in need of the stuff, but I hadn't come up with any other place to take it. You see, the complication of my quest to rid my life of clutter is that I hate to throw things out. I don't mind getting rid of it, but the thought of useful items in a landfill makes me crazy.
I went home and gathered up the stuff and took it out to her. She was thrilled, glad to have it. That felt really good.
