Considering that I don’t feel well today (Thursday), I was lucky this week’s challenge was easy. Odd stuff I found for this challenge:
- Left over dry cereal (in moist climate doesn’t last for next day). Why did I think she’d finish this for the next snack?
- Scrapbooking bits that my son left. (Nice - will have to continue the work on getting him to pick up his stuff.)
- Elefun game net. (Just the net. Hoop for it is gone.)
- Photography catalog. (I never look at catalogs - I always look on the net. Why was it here?)
- Odd little containers my hubby brought me from his last job. (I love containers - but these had no purpose. There was no “some” containers from him. It was - have him bring home all empty containers they didn’t need and looked interesting to him or none at all. No in between.)
- Magazine page with picture of a dress I want to make for my daughter. (Easier to deal with digitally, so I photographed it and put it in OneNote.)
- Papertowel tube that we saved for the hamster, who doesn’t chew the darn things. (hmm…)
In addition:
- I managed to sort through the stuff I got at the rummage sales today. (Gotta love neighborhood rummage sales.)
- I ditched most of the old role playing notes and papers on my shelf (this was a take 5 project in itself - I did it while hubby read to me). I do miss role playing - but our group is just not getting together anymore. I couldn’t toss 1 shoe box of stuff quite yet. At least gaming stuff isn’t threatening to take over my whole entertainment center now. (And this post gives more evidence that I am truly a geek.)

A side note: I am becoming a big fan of listening to stories on CD from the library or being read to by hubby while doing dishes and tasks like the Take 5 Challenges. I get engrossed in the story and don’t want to stop what I am working on until I HAVE to quit.

I love the idea of listening to books on tape while you’re doing your daily chores! This would make things go much faster. Thanks for sharing.
