Coffee and Some Random Thoughts

United States
November 6, 2025 9:48am CST
Happy Thursday Everyone! it's a bit cloudy here this morning and it won't be too cold today. Looks like we have a few more fall days temperature wise before next week starts off cold. While I was doing some organizing etc, I came across a container filled with buttons. I totally forgot I had them and only vaguely remember I was going to use them for some sort of craft project. I was going to put them in the donation box but then I hesitated. So many pretty buttons (all different). Now I don't know if I want to donate them or keep them. AND this is why I have so much stuff I still have a week to decide. That's when our stuff will be picked up. My daughter suggested going through all our coffee mugs once again and at least get rid of some. Sure, that's fine with me and I hope the same thing doesn't happen once I start looking at the mugs. Some are sentimental because my grandkids gave them to me but I'm sure others can be donated. But, that's probably a weekend tackle and not on my radar for today. Todays excitement is laundry!! Whoo hoo Simple dinner tonight. Grilled chicken, mashed potatoes and a veggie. That's what's going on here today

I keep nothing that I'm not using. I don't keep anything as "just in case" material.

I guess i inherited that "might need someday" from my mom. If you were looking for something guaranteed she would have it

7°C/45°F... not freezing but cold... brrr... I need to do some decluttering here, too, but with Juanita constantly asking me to help her but not taking my advice... well, I just don't have the energy to work on my own stuff. It really is overwhelming.

Interruptions certainly do hinder making any sort of progress . When that happens to me I give up

Sometimes I get gung go about giving things away, and then I come across something and I get sentimental even if it has no purpose. Or, it has a purpose but just don’t need it any longer.

I agree. Sometimes I want to give something away and then worry that the minute I don't have it, I'll need it

Dinner sounds fine. It is always good to remove unwanted and no longer wanted items from House. Sentimental things do take time to decide and it can be tricky at times. Enjoy the weather before it gets too cold. Have a nice Friday!

I have laundry going, too. Perfect since I forgot a handful of my husband's pants. They'll get dried eventually.

Decisions are so hard to make when it comes to our pretties. Maybe you could give some away and keep some. --?

Yes, you will have to keep those given by the Grandchildren. I would have to keep the buttons …. Craft projects in mind ….
