Please take this stuff---please???!!!

 Getting rid of things can be a bummer.

There is a huge shortage of canning jars in my area. You would not know that by the way I have been begging people on Craigslist to take several dozen off my hands. Nope!

Then there is the leaf collector. Yes, I know it is the wrong season, but PLEASE take it. It is free!

The silly government has an issue with old mattresses, so they make it hard to get rid of them. We have two we are not taking. They are six years old and have been slept on about twice a year! Please just take them. "You can always take them to the dump" Really? I spend hundreds of hours recycling, reusing, using up and you want me to take a perfectly great mattress to the dump? 

This would be the year that my flowers have gone wild around our house. My gardenia bush put out about 1000 flowers in a single week. The new people are thinking of pulling it out. I hope they offer it up to someone---but then people just don't take things....

Then there is my silly 13 lbs dog. You would think we are punishing her by feeding her. She really expects to be hand fed (I wonder who started that up?) Just take the food!

Off to another day of getting rid of stuff. Wish me luck!
