Day 16: H&M Scarf

I have a scarf problem. They've taken over an entire coat rack in our hall closet. So when I spotted a checkered Mickey Mouse scarf at Disney last week, G made me promise to get rid of one of my scarves. I had just read an old blog post by Michele Connolly about the OCIOGO rule, so that sounded like a good idea. This woven scarf is kind of itchy, so off it goes.

Please take notice of how completely awesome my new scarf is. I'm thinking of getting it surgically attached.

DESTINATION: Goodwill.

He loves home renovations, cars, and UFC. He is the father to the same two awesome boys. He sometimes dumps Tabasco in a can of garbanzo beans and calls it lunch.

a few house rules...

...better known as excuses designed to make our lives easier.

1) If we throw something away on Thursday but don't get a chance to post until Friday, it counts.

2) If we get rid of a few things at once, we can post them one at a time over the next few days. It's our stuff and we want to give it a proper send-off. Besides, we can't tell craigslisters, "Can you come tomorrow instead? We're all blogged-out today."

3) Sometimes we'll throw a pile of crap out and count it as five days' worth. Sometimes we'll throw a pile of crap out and call it one day. Both are fine, because we make the rules.

Rules subject to change when we feel like it.
