In response to "New Adventure"

Where we live, our waste management actively discourages us from going to the landfill ourselves. They charge something like $75 per load you want to dispose of. The only way that would be cheaper than a month of residential waste removal services would be if I had a huge truck or a trailer to haul multiple months' worth of trash all in one go.

In response to "Recyclables"

I used to have a hard time letting stuff go if it was just going to be thrown in the trash. But like you, I tend to use stuff (especially clothing) until it wears out, so I've had to come to terms with the fact that I got my money's worth out of it and nobody needs a shirt with a hole in it, or a pair of shoes with no treads on them anymore.

In response to "Decluttering"

I don't feel I've acquired much, since my wife passed. On the other hand, I've not made much of an effort to "thin the herd" either, so I think I have a fairly good picture of what you're facing. Best of luck!

In response to "Anticipation"

Congratulations on getting a new computer! Sounds like it will definitely be a relief once you're all set up at home with your wifi so you don't have to go to the library anymore!

In response to "Dental Hygienists"

I have the same issue with my dentist. They really push to have their clients come in every six months, but if I ever have to reschedule, they go, "Well the next available appointment we have is four months from now."

In response to "Clothing Center"

I bought 4 pair of second-hand socks today... hopefully woolen. They are kinder to my feet.

I mostly wear second-hand clothes. A few items I've had for over 15 years.

In response to "Marigolds"

I had a friend who could grow four-o'clocks along her foundation. Some perennials are semi-hardy. My geraniums are geriatric. I only have two left.

I have a marigold coming up from seed now but I'll be gone 5 weeks. We'll see.

In response to "Unisex Bathrooms?"

Single occupant toilet rooms may be the future; but, I still remember a unisex bathroom in Turkey with individual enclosed stalls (not semi-open which is common in the US).

In response to "Is Being Old So Bad?"

Good thoughts here

I marvel at the things I'll be able to tell my grandkids about someday. Life is accelerating - or maybe it just feels that way!

Take care

In response to "Birthday Parties"

It's cool you got to spend time with family, even if some of that time was threatened by a decibel-level event.

I completely sympathize with your desire to declutter. I have more stuff than you can shake a stick at that didn't actually belong to just my wife or myself throughout the house.

All Her Fault

If you have the chance to view "All Her Fault". do so. It is spell-binding. I couldn't wait to see what happened next. It was based on a book by that name. the stories are layered and intertwined. Everyone appears to be the boy or the girl next door, but they all have their secrets and are capable of horrible things.

I did learn a new term, Tran sensory. That child appeared to be normal, and we were told he would be no trouble and have a "normal" life. By contrast there was a child twice as old, but maybe emotionally younger. They never used the word autistic, but he appeared to be. The focus wasn't on the child as much as it was on the parent who loved him.

If you have to have a moral to the story it would be "Don't lie." They certainly spun a dangerous web of lies.
