Today I filled the back of my car with the 3 newly made dog pillows and dropped the off at the Southern Arizona Humane Society. The have new drop boxes for donations. The were over sized dog houses. They were very cute. My only problem with them is that they were not quite arthritis friendly. The lids were very heavy and hard to lift. I found this sad, because a few dollars of hardware would make the lids easier to lift.
The next stop was Goodwill for 2 boxes and a bag. I thanked the gentleman taking the donations and said that he was aiding in cleaning my house. As a treat I stopped at Brugger’s bagels and got 3 Rosemary bagels for a job well done.
My next deep cleaning task is go go through my knitting books to see which ones I will be keeping and which ones I will be listening on eBay. I have one book currently listed and have lined up 5 more to list tomorrow. My goal is to have my books sorted by project or craft type. My second goal is to have all my books fit in the bookcase and not stacked around the house. I am hoping that this is doable. I am listening most books with a 99 cent beginning bid with the buy it now price 50% of retail at the time they were published. I will put links on my Twitter and Facebook feeds. Some are in nice enough shape for gift giving. I might even have some out of print books too. Did I mention that I listed a first edition of a Noro book today. It is only a 7 day listening so hurry over.
