Too far behind on the actions to get rid of 500 items so far. 

Out of 339 items identified to sell:
  • 5 Sold
  • 2 Pending
  • 7 listed
  • 1 unsold


Out of 436 items identified to Donate:
  • 52 dropped off to Salvation Army
  • 21 ready to donate/sell to Disctraders
  • 237 Books boxed up ready to donate/trash (need to review what can be donated)


Items to Trash/Recycle
  • 17 Books scanned, need to verify full scan completed
  • 15 Binders tossed
  • 1 LARGE bin of scanned papers to be disposed of.  
On a positive note I did get to use the massive paper cutter....

The Fujitsu ScanSnap made fairly quick work of 17 books today.  I likely would have been able to scan them all, had I cut the books properly.  I was a bit too conservative with how much room I need to give the text.  So a few pages ended up still being stuck together.  Still not bad for a few hours work.  Next stop double-checking the pages are all in order, and clear.  


I should be a little more focused tomorrow and get some more items up on eBay, and drop off the donated books.  It will be essentially halfway through the month, and need to be at 250 items if I hope to get to 500.

    Trying to figure out how to balance what can appear to be the Chaos of life.  Picking up new hobbies, passions and learning for a lifetime of happiness and success.  Curating it all, for better or worse.
    I work for a Fortune 500 company as...well a crystal ball for lack of more specifics.   Never knew that there was such a thing as a Multipotentialite or Multi-passionate...just figured everyone  wants to constantly learn something new.  
    This blog will chronicle my attempts to Balance the Chaos which can result from this, and work/life in general.
