Day 9 - a quick run through

I'm falling behind! No time to really devote to decluttering, so today I just did a quick run through and got rid of some obvious stuff on the main level and in the basement. Trash and donation. In addition, the mattress from Day 1 went to the alley for bulk trash pickup (but thanks to the city, no actual pickup occurred). And, my daughter went to a little nanny birthday party in the neighborhood and presents are sometimes given, sometimes not in nanny sponsored parties. But I sent Sweetpea and Gee off with a regift of a present Sweetpea got last year and we never opened.

Today's accomplishments: 1 water damaged mattress in the trash (sorta); 1 child toy gone; 5 things for the trash (along back of photo)- empty shoe box, empty jewelry gift box, empty hair detangler from under the couch, torn gift bag from my (August) birthday, oh and a candle all the way burnt down (near front of pic). 6 things for donation - 2 weird teapots that look like buildings, a box of recipe cards, a heart shaped wire box with sachet, a wine glass with a candle in it (wrapped in paper), and who knows why I had this - a cassette tape of "Mountain Music of Peru." Seriously.
