Day 291 - Misc. Kid Stuff

Today I shifted some office supplies and brought a box up from our basement to find homes for its contents.

Of note were 7 reams of water damaged printer paper from our minor flood 3 years ago.  As it happened a whole case of printer paper was sitting on it's long side on the carpet in the basement office.  Due to its orientation every sheet of paper absorbed some water.  So we were looking at 5,000 sheets of paper with a wrinkly inch or two at the end.  We weren't about to let it go to waste so we slowly are using it for kids printables, coupons, directions, etc.  One year we even used it for the Christmas letter laughingly directing readers to the wrinkles at the bottom of the pages.

We still have over 3,500 sheets so I bet we'll use it again for Christmas letters.

We also got rid of huge box our new printer came in.  I'm not sure why it was still in our office unless it's because stuff just was piled on top of it?

I didn't find anything to get rid of out of the office today, so here's a different assortment of items.

1. Wand
2. Brush
3. Broken dress-up shield
4. Glitter hat
5 & 6. Fun cups but 2 are not enough when you have 4 kids
7. Candle I was burning to "use it up."  Why not just toss it?

9. Dried out glue
10. Lion/Griffin decoration
11 to 13. Broken chairs that went with a house we got rid of this summer
14. Broken beads
