You may have been waiting for the (semi)-promised pics of my clean out attempt, so here we go...

Before (I'd started but hadn't gotten far) |

Before, Angle 2 |

During ... Books were sorted in boxes on a folding table |
And now, what we've ALL been waiting for ... THE RESULTS
|
Books to be sold in rummage sale this summer |
|
Being picked up by Amvets mid-April |
|
What I kept (ignore the cooler) |
I also had 3 boxes that were going to a local nursing home and ended up going to ReadingTree.org (no pics, sorry).
As you can see, I still have work to do. It took 3 nights (about 9 hrs). The AmVets boxes still need lugged upstairs, I still have more books in my room, etc., and there's still quite a bit left. But I parted with books I didn't think I would, and I'm happy with my progress.
Wow! That's a lot of organizing.
ReplyDeleteAll that organizing was a lot of work. =) Once the AmVets boxes get picked up I think I'll feel like more has been done.
