CELEBRATE!!! AGAIN.....CATAGORY #15 of extraneous stuff safely in Osaka, Japan
The Gail Blanke challenge of 50 (catagories) of things/stuff out of my house/life...and "FIND MY LIFE" continues:
On Saturday, June 26th a friend and professional colleague from Osaka came from dinner and over-night on her way back home.
Saved for her were professional books..video tapes.....and a wall hanging MADE BY ME...with authentic Japanese fabric --given to me in 2003--.
Check this blog: quilt-stashproject-2020.blogspot.com... to get full information about my quilting/distributing project.
Working dilligently on: pricing and organizing all "stuff" to be sold at the community flea market-July 10.
Reporting on that adventure in next 10 days...
Unfortunately, still looking for sturdy box for mailing Sex Therapy books.
The adventure continues...

CELEBRATE!!! Catagory #14 of extraneous stuff mailed to Tennessee yesterday.
Again the Gail Blanke challenge of 50 (catagories) of things/stuff out of my house/life..and.."FIND MY LIFE" continues:
Sent to Tennessee yesterday a box of ribbons and gift wrapping papers..destined for the craft program of the recovery ward of a children's hospital.
Well worth the $2.89 in postage.
Also on the way into the mail 2 seminal books on Sex Therapy.. to be used by a professional colleague.
So counting: 15 (catagories) of extraneous stuff distributed...35 to go.
For those monitoring..no clothing distributed..long uninteresting story..probably not until week 6 will this be accomplished..
And the adventure continues...
Ever Onward. Stuff Master

CELEBRATE!!! CATAGORY # 13 of extraneous stuff... distributed today.
The Gail Blanke challenge: 50 (catagories) of things/stuff out of my house/life...and 'FIND MY LIFE" continues:
Delivered/"distributed" to my local library this morning:
38 -2009-2010 New Yorker (weekly) magazines; 15- 2009-2010 assorted monthly magazines.
This will be a monthly "distribution" task; and "bless'' the library for this worthy program of making a wide variety of magazines free to whoever....And helping those of us who seek to "do-good" while also getting-rid-of extraneous stuff.
Aslo accomplished June 16--yesterday: accepted by a up-scale homefurnishing consignment shop--- 12 smoky-glass compote/desert dishes. Not out-of-my-life yet..but out of my house.
So with luck someone will appreciate/value..and buy.....and I will have some money...and another part of my Project Distribute-2026 goal will be accomplished...
Planing on first clothing distribution tomorrow...Local organization helping needy women prepare for the working world....will my offering be acceptable???
Well..EVER ONWARD... Stuff Master

MONDAY, JUNE 7, 2010..YEAR 1...WEEK 3...BLOG 5..DAY 14 of 5840
O.K. I have taken the Gail Blanke challenge of getting 50 (catagories) of things out of my house; and..."FIND MY LIFE". SO FAR IN 14 DAYS I HAVE DOCUMENTED 7 (SEVEN) "things" distributed..and out of my life.
I have also stated that I am NOT a horder or a clutter-er...all rooms of my house are orderly and neat; the closets,cabinets and drawers are organized and neat......
However....not really a revelation: there ARE an abundance of little used..no longer used or useful "things carefully organized, arranged, stored that can be..SHOULD BE "DISTRIBUTED"...
and the focus of my time and energy for next few weeks.... will be on getting "stuff" together for a fund raising community flea market/garage sale.....
So far this has been interesting, but demanding "work"..but amazingly rewarding...
Community Flea Market/garage sale--July 10.....if all goes as I hope and plan...I WILL have at LEAST 20 (CATAGORIES) OF 'STUFF REMOVED FROM MY HOUSE...
ANOTHER REPORT LATER IN THE WEEK: mission to check-out all possible "places" for distribution of STUFF.
HAPPILY MOVING ONWARD...Stuff Master

PETER WALSH....Distribution #7...........CLUTTER vs. DOWNSIZING
I know Peter Walsh as the organizer..supreme..of horders/clutters of the OPRAH show...
even doing a show on Thursday, May 27, as aa unexpected sort-of synergistic.and futher inspiration for this project...
Two things:
Inspired by the show I got all three of Peter's books from the library:
"How to Organize ( Just About) Anything" (year??) a daunting...and to me "useless" 500 page plus reference...for people REALLY deficient in organizing skills.
" It's All Too Much: A Plan for Living A Richer Life With Less Stuff" (2007)which confirmed to me that I DO KNOW how-to-do..what I will do.
and...."Enough Already!:Clearing Mental Clutter to Become the Best You (2009)...and i am much relieved to have Peter confirm...I do not have much "mental clutter".
Reference: www.peterwalshdesign.com
Watching the recent Oprah...and reading Peter's books I clarified again for myself:
There ARE horders..and those whose life is full of "clutter'....fortunately I am NOT in those catagories...My house is neat and orderly; all closets,cabinates, drawers...and orderly and organized....
However, that does not mean I don't have some unnecessary extraneous STUFF.....
in need of getting rid-of...in order to DOWNSIZE..
So first step; Gail Blanke challenge...get rid of 50 "things" ..and ("FIND MY LIFE")...
On BLOG 3--May 29 I LISTED 6 (six) THINGS "DISTRIBUTED--GOTTEN OUT-OF -HOUSE
I will NOT list them again untill ALL 50 "things" have been accomplished...
I WILL confirm today...that Item #7...30 packaged dental health maintenace products were delvered to my local Homeless Center... on June 1 ( along with an "orphan"--"new-never used -small zippered cloth carry on bag.)
So..this DOWNSIZING--Project Distribute-2026..is chugging along...and it is a demanding...but fascinating ADVENTURE .
