Lots of progress

[cjsmith]

All leftover cheese grated, flour-tossed, and frozen.

Books completely reorganized. Large armfuls moved to other rooms. Now there aren't stacks of books on the chimney and in front of the bookcase. Fiction, writing, and souvenirs (photos and travel books) are in this room and that's it. A major purge of all other topics (ahem, hiking and running and backpacking? sheesh) coming up soon.

Desktop computer area completely purged. I don't use any of that stuff. Out it goes!

Laptop "docking station" area set up. (Yeah, ok, I kept one mouse and a network cable.)

Couch cleaned up in the vain hope anyone anywhere might take it. What the heck do people DO with things like that? I don't want it. Its upholstery is torn and thus probably no one else will want it either. Yet it's a freakin' big thing to just throw in a landfill.

Cat snoring on nearby chair. Dinner coming soon courtesy of rfrench. (Sadly, bills still not paid.) I could happily use another day, but this is not too bad.

Aw, bummer! I wish there had been another way too. As I'm not under the same time/access constraints, I may be able to do the on-the-curb-free thing... but if that doesn't work I think I'll have to do the same as you: bring it to the dump. :-(

Thank you for the sympathy, I do appreciate it. I think the couch was in the best shape of the 3 items, such as it was (even with cushions that liked to slip off a lot). At least the job is done.

Thank you for the comment reply -- it helps with not feeling so alone with this kind of furniture issue. Again, good luck with yours!
