I got up very early and hit the garage before it got too hot. I had a plan. I had stuff and yarn that had to go. So I now have 3 more empty boxes that I will give to John, so he can see what he has stored. 3 more large plastic tubs left the house filled with baskets that I no longer use, more yarn and jewelry display items that I no longer need. I also said goodbye to some more jewelry making supplies. I am also sending my second drum carder to a new home because it is to big for any of my available space. I will still keep the small carder that makes very small batts along with my hand carders.
My end game goal is to have no more yarn or fiber in the garage at all. In tandem I will be making a lot of new things for me so that I clear space in the house. I would ultimately like to not have fiber and yarn in the sewing / guest room either. I know that will take some time. It has taken me a couple of years to get to this point. So I really know it will take time.
If anyone really wants to know. Today was all directed by me. My family was not given a say so in what was leaving or done. I did require some help from John, I am really not up to doing a lot of heavy lifting yet. John did a very good job. He even got some baskets that were stored in the house out of my reach to go. I personally suspect that he did not want me climbing to get things he can reach from the floor..
We also found things in the garage that could be recycled. So the recycling bin all 96 gallons is almost filled to the top. Somehow cleaning leads to more cleaning and organizing.
We were out of the garage before 7:30A.M.. we were so hot we got some water and went straight to the shower before breakfast. The picture below shows what left the house today. My friend and her daughter picked everything up after dinner. The boxes were wider than my car. The cardboard box had the carder in it.
