Never wanna lose the documents for your cheese grater, for sure.

I really need to UFMH before local friends want to see my place after moving mid pandemic. But I donât want to. Also before my little sister visits in June.
We tried to donate some bedsheets to the local animal shelter, which usually wants them, but not during COVID (which I totally getâneed to reserve limited staff for actual animal care rather than going thru donations). That was in March. They are still sitting in the guest room Not the kind of thing Iâd expect someone to want to buy used from a thrift store, but I also donât want to trash them. Sigh.
I have bought plenty of sheets from the thrift store. Some were actually nice sets of sheets to use as such, but some were for craft projects.
Yep. I have definitely slept on thrift store sheets and also gotten a white one to make ninja headbands. You can donate to your local thrift store.
I donât have any other kind of sheets, for people or for dogs.
Lots of people buy sheets to use for sewing muslins. And costumes. I love a giant piece of fabric for $1.
I am pleased to report that the living room and washing situations previously reported on in this thread have been resolved. There is a new pile of washing in a different room but it is at least for now smaller and we are ok about it.
The boxes stored in the loft-ish space in the spare room have not budged. It looks to me like more boxes have been created. Can boxes multiply? I donât recall adding more myself.
I have a problem in our entrance. The hallway always gets filled with stuff in âtemporaryâ storage. I had it cleared, and then we put the box of Christmas stuff there until we found time to put it back in the study cupboard and now itâs May and thereâs a huge pile of empty plastic and cardboard boxes and I canât get the pram through. I am so glad this particular space simply wonât exist when weâve renovated but I also need it gone right now.
Didnât take a before pic, but my dogâs stuff was spread out over a few rooms in piles previously. Itâs now organized, and yes, the top drawer is outfits and costumes.
This is my daily battle.
Before:
After:
The long term solution is to throw out all the toys and maybe the toddler.
Ah, but what about the tendency of children to constantly generate garbage, in the form of hasty art projects/costumes/toys made from, for instance, lined paper and masking tape?
Bin. Immediate bin. As soon as theyâre presented and forgotten about. Maybe after a brief public showing. Bin.
My concession to art;
But only because it matches the aesthetic Iâm going for.
The Before actually looks quite good considering your two tiny tornadoes! But dang, the After feels so nice.
I love the after. I also love my kids. But damn, I dream about the times in the past where it would stay like the after shot. Or a time in the future when it will.
I donât have kids and never have and never will but DAMN the before is anxiety inducing for me - I can practically feel the tornado of energy!
Also, puppers is suspiciously in the center of the room in every photo⌠is he the actual culprit???
I⌠Uh⌠My spaces never looked even as clean as your âbeforeâ when I did not have sproglets. I am a slob.
Haha no, she is judging us. You know itâs messy when someone whoâs main occupation is licking their arse and digging holes thinks itâs a lot.
