Happy Friday.
What's going on?
It's cloudy again. This is unusual. I might actually have to check the weather to see what's going on.
And I slept in a little bit. I must have needed it :3

Howdy howdy folks
I'm good. In dire need of coffee, but feeling too lazy to make it.
LOL. Then your need is not so great XD
I'm not sure about you, but with me, without the coffee, the things do not get done... and I'm never too lazy to make it. :3

Coffee is best when you can get someone else to make. lol
Oh that's when it's the best.
Absolutely nothing. Today is a full day of rest. Well Minecraft too. Then later this evening some D&D.
I acquired coffee.
That sounds like a good day! Rest. Minecraft. D&D. ...and coffee :3
I am attempting to organize and declutter. It's proving to be harder than it probably should be

For right now I'm done trying to get this room decluttered, since I've gotten it as goo as I can.
Sometimes, that's all you can do.
I'm trying to dig out from raising and homeschooling the kids, so the first step is decluttering the closet where I stuffed all their supplies and curriculum from the last few years. There's a lot of stuff in that closet and I'm amazed at how many notebooks and pencils I have. I see some serious donations in my future :3

Don't bother donating any workbooks if there's any markings in them. They just get thrown away. Same with pencils. XD
LOL - thanks for confirming that. Yes, some of this stuff will probably end up at one of the big donation centers, but I was thinking more along the lines of donating to the local homeschool families and groups, or putting together packets of things for the kids who need the school supplies.
You'd be surprised at the number of people who will donate used workbooks that are basically entirely full, used colouring books, and shit like that. Lol
Actually, I'm sure more people than not do that kind of thing, so no, I personally wouldn't be surprised at that.
For me, it's one thing to put a slightly used textbook up for grabs on the free table at a homeschool co-op because I know some parents will use the material anyway, and my kids weren't usually rough on their books... and it's free, for a specific audience that I know well. It's another thing to put up grubby, beat up, very used stuff in a general donation place like Salvation Army or Goodwill. I like the idea of passing on things that I no longer need, but there are some things that just belong in the trash...

I wish more people had those thoughts, because we really hate having to sort those out.
I bet, AMA. There's the fuzzy line of "somebody else's trash is another person's treasure" but even if you're walking that one, there's a point where it's just not useable and should be tossed :3
@Ava: Oh hi Ava! It sounds like you're having a really good day! <3 Good luck with the auditions - I hope they went well for you!
I don't know what we're going to do for Father's Day - all the kids are adults at this point, so it's 100% up to them to figure out if they're going to do something or not. We'll probably end up going out to eat at some point. Beyond that, I don't know. Do you have anything lined up for Father's Day?
