Today is Thursday and I brought our broken dehumidifier to the recycling. They will properly drain the fluids in the lines and recycle the remaining material. It cost me $5 to correctly throw-away this “taking up space in our already full garage” dehumidifier. But I got $7 yesterday for a super-sized garbage bag of aluminum cans. So, I am money ahead and have 1.5 sq ft more space available to park something else in the garage.
Little tips I have heard about clutter is to do things like:
When you buy a new piece of new clothing, give an old piece of clothing to Good Will.
I read of a person who made it a habit to try to recycle, giveaway or throwaway something every Thursday. Throw-away Thursdays.
This is not quite what John the baptizer had in mind when he told people to give away their extras.
Luke 3:10-11
“What should we do then?” the crowd asked.
11 John answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.”
The people were convicted by John’s call to repent and they asked him what they should do. His reply was to be generous and not self-serving. Give to those who do not have what you have in multiples of. This causes me to view my clutter completely different.
