I just wanted to get a general feel for how everyone felt about getting to recycle for other uses. There are many other uses for some of these things.

Robyn, I think recycling is a great idea,I know I do it at home, and when I visit my parents, go through their stuff too to see what they save for me...I love organizing!
Both of my SPs got their packages and PMed me about them, and I am one day closer to get my mail ( is it Friday yet:arrow: ?)
Lori, hope all goes well with your MRI.

Off topic, but ... the great decluttering continues! I think I am getting rid of a boat and trailer today. YAY!
And the giant thing I found in my compost bin (see this thread http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-152132-1.htm has found a home along with several cases of food! I ran into an old friend at the church I brought it to ... a nun who used to work there - and she has agreed to take several gallons of wine off my hands for the convent. They are a happy bunch, or will be soon!
Now to declutter some of my older stash, started before I went all cotton. Got tons of rayon, seersucker, etc. Don't think anyone on the board would want so ... off to freecycle I go!

SL Hughes I am your mirror image. I am a right hand writer but do most things lefthanded. Some things, like sewing, I can do with both hands. Makes life very interesting! With one draw back, I find it difficult to tell my left from my right.

The postal service is taking their sweet time delivering my SP package and it drives me nuts!
