eBay


I swear, eBay is out to get me this week.  I'm in purge mode right now and I want to post a bunch of things on eBay and I can't.  I cannot get past the "pick a category" stage.  It keeps telling me I haven't picked a category and won't let me go any further.  It is super frustrating and I haven't had a reply from eBay help yet even though it's been a few days.

I'm on a roll and would like to continue. Stupid software bugs.

Clothing Purges

I've in the past week been working on clothing purges.  My hubby, Munchkin and I really do have to many clothes.  We many not necessarily have the right clothing, but in general we have too much.

On Sunday I did the Munchkin pile.  My sister was bringing over a few boxes of baby/toddler clothes that a coworker had passed along for me.  He is very nice that way which is awesome.  However I was running out of room to store all the clothing I have for my little guy (several people have given us stuff which is most appreciated but can be a little hard on the storage space).  So we lay everything out on the bed by type and size and did an evaluation.  There was stuff in the great pile from 6-9 months all the way up to 4 years old.  Mind you as the size goes up there is less stuff.   Little boys start wearing it out.

We kept a large amount of stuff, but were also able to put a bag aside for Goodwill and 2 diaper boxes for on of my sister's friends.  Now all I have to do is go through the too small stuff I have and divide it up for the people I will be passing it along to.   And I have to make a Goodwill bag of stuff I don't think my friends will use.


Next post......purging my clothes.

Yay less stuff!

Today was a good day in the reducing stuff we own.  We returned a baby swing and glider to someone we had borrowed them from.  We no longer need either of the items.

Our Munchkin doesn't really use a swing anymore and we have replaced the glider with an old fashioned rocking chair as our Mr. Munchkin doesn't seem to want to hang out in a glider.

But less stuff in the house is great!

I also spent part of the day going through Munchkin's baby clothing and I have another big pile of too small/won't fit next summer clothing to go to any boy children we know.
