Yesterday afternoon after work I took two boxes to the post office to mail. Two items sold on eBay. One was a box filled with nearly a hundred miniature Matchbox toy cars that I’d had since I was a little kid. I had a little bit of anxiety about selling that. I kept a dozen or so. I’m sure at some point there are a few in the lot that I’ll regret having parted with. But hey, I’m gonna have a real Rolls Royce here one of these soon days, right?<\/p>\n
The second box was outdated computer software and some accompanying books. Happy to see that go.<\/p>\n
That’s two sales so far out of the 32 items I listed over the weekend. I have low opening bids on five or six additional items. I’m not exactly raking in the big bucks, but it’s a start.<\/p>\n
And that’s two large flat-rate boxes, or about the equivalent of one apple box, of stuff that is now GONE! The combined weight of the boxes was 33 pounds, so that’s 33 pounds of stuff I don’t have to shuffle around in the Room of Doom anymore.<\/p>\n
I also jogged 5 km (3 miles) after work. I’m hoping to have enough ambition to do that again today. I weighed\u00a0205<\/strong>\u00a0pounds<\/strong> yesterday, down from a ridiculous\u00a0207 pounds<\/strong> the previous day. That’s just stupid. It’s well past time to drop that weight! So, clutter and fat, I gotta keep whittling away at both of ’em.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yesterday afternoon after work I took two boxes to the post office to mail.
