Too early for spring cleaning

Since it is too freakin cold to go anywhere, Darrell and I took advantage of being stuck in the house and cleaned out our storage room in the basement. We organized, cleaned, and now have 5 boxes and a trash bag of goodies for charity. I still am amazed at all the stuff we have or should I say the stuff we didn't throw away!
Disable Vet's are coming this week to pick up our goodies including Christmas decorations! I consolidates 3 shelves of Christmas decor down to 2 and and empty tote!!! I searched all over St. Charles county looking for a place to donate old and unused holiday decor to and no one was accepting donations. What's up with that?? Anyway...we cleaned up our clutter and found some real treasures. I think we had enough hand-me-down dishes and utensils to serve at least 50 people. I found a box of wedding supplies...why did I feel the need to bring that with us when we moved from our old house?? It's been almost 10 years since we got married and no one I know is going to use already burned purple candles and ribbon for their wedding. We found we own 9 lunch box coolers. One for everyday of the week +! And a host of knick-knacks we didn't know we had. So they are finding a useful home with someone else. Now we need to tackle to man cave...anyone need floral supplies???
