Hi, David,
I just found your blog and the ten things challenge. I was excited to take it on, too! My apartment is, I’m happy to say, pretty well edited, but I was able to find ten things to give away this weekend.
1. Extra back-of-the-door hooks (Goodwill)
2. Extra interview folder (Goodwill)
3. Lots of pens and pencils (Goodwill)
4. Various cords and cables – how did we use so many at our old apt?! (Goodwill)
4. Refrigerator door – wrong part sent to me (Freecycle)
5. Refrigerator handle – ditto (Freecycle)
6. 2009 Paris calendar that I haven’t hung since we moved (recycle)
7. Two books (Goodwill)
8. Silk shirt that shrunk in wash (Goodwill)
9. Pajama pants (Goodwill)
10. Vacuum-storage bag (Goodwill)

I’m doing the Kitchen Cure Challenge at http://cure.apartmenttherapy.com/2009/kitchen-fall so, I suspect, my 10 will all be kitchen items in the coming weeks.

Thanks Tammy – not only does it put some money in the bank but it’s one less thing to move and worry about!

That is definitely minimalist, for sure. In terms of furniture, all I am moving is a bed, a dresser, a couch, a chair and a half, and my work desk.

We sold most of our furniture in preparation to move.

All we have left:
1 Table
1 Stool
4 Folding Chairs
1 Futon
2 Racks

That’s it. We used to have at least 8 other pieces of furniture that we didn’t really use.
