I decluttered two boxes last weekend. This weekend I can't because all of my available boxes are filled with stuff from our bathroom that's off the shelves while we have it painted. (Getting the place ready to sell = finally getting rid of the fugly-ass beige wallpaper we've been putting up with in the bathroom for 8 years.)

meara! You're doing the thing! That's more than most people do. Gold star for showing up. A waterfall of gold stars for crossing the finish line -- doesn't matter how long it takes you to get there.
Also just wanted to echo this. Truth.

The cat is super cute, and hey I can buy it with points! Yes, please.

Points? I get a few bucks off every time, because I use my Discover card and build up rewards that way. I'm just wondering if there's some other program out there I need to know about, because I am cheap like that.

I have an Amazon Visa card that collects points like airline miles. Nice for the buying of frivolous things.

listing items is taking so long. but, on the up side, I have found several more kitchen items to list and a few more to get rid of.
The idea with doing this is that unlike eBay, I will not have to resist after so many days and do the process over and over if they do not sell. Also I have 4 years before I am really gonna have to downsize (current plan anyway), so this allows me to just add to the site as I go through more and clarify what I no longer want.

Ah, I don't really need another credit card. I have 3 major ones already, two with points/rewards, which is why I use them for larger purchases that I pay off right away so I don't pay interest, but get lovely rewards.
ms_belle, I admire your strategy for getting rid of clutter and make money off of it. I tend to make a huge pile throughout the year and then bag it all up in December to donate to Goodwill and then claim it on my taxes.
ION, I now have Meyer Lemon Pudding Cakes in the oven. Having the oven and the crockpot going has heated this place up too much, I succumbed and turned the air conditioning on. It's 79 out and usually I can survive that, but not today.

A friend gave me the gnome eating dragon a few months ago. I adore it. It sits on the trunk on my front porch.
