DECLUTTER: VHS TAPES, A COUNTRY CD AND FIX-IT MANUALS
As I purchased some items at a recent half-price sale at thrift stores, in keeping with my declutter plan that an equal to or greater than numbers of items need to go out I picked out all except the fix-it books for donation.
The Fix-It books had belonged to my ex, Marv, and they were purchased through Reader's Digest Do-It-Yourself Manual and Fix It Yourself Manual and I believe these were purchased in 1990 right after we purchased the house. I believe he used one as a reference to fix a dryer to replace and element instead of buy a new one and saved us hundreds of dollars.
They are very informative books and I would recommend them to anyone who owns a home. Usually more updated versions are available at your local library.
Most of the videos have have seen several times and now available on streaming services, should I want to see them again. What will miss, as I do with LPs, it the artwork and photos that are on the box used to market the products.
I am trying to sort through my vast collection to donate all but what I really love, that way I can donate them while people still have VHS tape players to watch them.
As I am not a country fan, the CD is a leftover from when I was engaged to a man that was. Not sure why he left this and chose to take my Rick Springfield's Greatest Hits and Foreigner 4 CDs.
I donated clothing as well but the photo didn't turn out. I have lost weight and sorting through what is too big and getting rid of it as an incentive to keep the weight off, which is even more of a challenge due to the isolation of mostly staying in due to the Corona virus.
