Cleaning up

I borrowed “Decluttering at the Speed of Life: Winning Your Never Ending Battle with Stuff” by Dana K. White from Amazon’s “Prime Reading” library nearly four years ago; I finally finished reading it on the plane home from Hawai’i (which says something about the speed of my life!). And I’ve been cleaning up stuff ever since we got home, such as the files in the office I mentioned last night.

Today, I finally got ready to try to get rid of the A/V receiver I’d replaced when we bought the 4K TV in January; it had been sitting in the living room ever since I took it out of service. I posted it on Facebook Marketplace and on NextDoor; five hours later, I’d sold it on Facebook for $45 (I got three inquiries on Facebook before finding the buyer; NextDoor didn’t provide any nibbles).

I also got rid of some other disused electronics…well, I moved them into the e-waste bag in the garage, which is getting pretty full. I guess I need to find out how to get the e-waste out of the house next!

Rain Delay

Our solar installer was supposed to be here at 9 this morning to do the official site survey and roof inspection so that they can submit the paperwork for permits and PG&E approval. But the weather outside was frightful, and when the surveyor arrived, he said that it was too windy and rainy to do the inspection. As he put it, “when the ground is wet, the roof is usually wet, too.”

That wasn’t the most exciting thing that happened today; I could show you photos of the piles of manila folders I sorted through and refiled, but I’ll leave that to your imagination.
