Day 34 - VHS tapes



This is our first pass at the VHS tapes. We helped the girls pick out many of their own movies that they don't watch. Interestingly we vetoed many of their choices, so perhaps we are more attached to their movies than they are. Hm.

Here's a list:
1. Puff the Magic Dragon - they could care less
2. Secret of Nimh 2 - watched once and too scary
3. Lion King - duplicate
4. Snow White - duplicate
5. Kids is Kids - Donald Duck compliation including a scene where he makes his nephews smoke a bunch of cigars! - they never watch it
6. Joseph - we have the DreamWorks one)
7. Abraham - have a few other cartoons about Abe
8. Moses - we have many, many Bible story movies
9. Santa Buddies - fun movie, but we like others better for Christmas
10. Romy & Michele - mine, too many yucks
11. Steel Magnolias - mine, too depressing
12. Big Bird goes to the Hospital - never watch
13. Noah
14. Kingdom Under the Sea - too scary
15. Cat in the Hat Gets Grinched
16. Thomas the Train
17. You are Special
18. Bible Songs
19. Random Christian movie with puppets
20. Little Engine that Could
21. Peter Rabbit
22. Wishbone
23. BibleMan
24. Hermie - duplicate
25. Madeline
26. CD of kids' songs that never gets played.

I gave a lot of these away at MOPS recently but I have a few left that I'm hoping to offer to the church library.

Day 31 - Shirts & Pony toys



1-8. Shirts that don't fit. I sent most of these to a friend.
9. Galaxy Quest on VHS. Can you believe we actually had two copies of this one?
10. A flimsy book that got scribbled on. On of my biggest peeves is defaced books.
11. A pair of tights that are way too big for the girls. I picked them up used and figured I'd just stow them for later, but I haven't managed to stow them and I want them off my dresser. Be gone!
12. A candle plate that would totally work as a serving plate if it were dishwasher safe. As it's not, I'll just part with it.
13-26. My Little Pony figures and various pieces. One of my girls loves these, but I slipped them away three weeks ago and she hasn't even noticed. I'm trying to trim down how many "sets" of toys we have. Grandma has an impressive collection of these particular ponies so we'll just play with them at her house.

Did you notice the background is different? I was changing my sheets at photo time so instead of blue bedspread you see white mattress pad.

Day 5 - Miscellanous

This assortment of random items has been piling up next to my bed. It's becoming a little hidey-hole for things destined for Project Twentysix that we don't want the kids to see.

1. VBS T-shirt kiddo won't wear again
2. Maternity top found in summer clothes
3. Baby toy - rattle
4. Baby toy - light up turtle
5. Book - Junie B. Jones duplicate copy
6. Styrofoam "pearl" from VBS pirate treasure chest
7. Acorn squash that sat on my kitchen counter for a month. Seriously, if I haven't used it in a month it just needs to be gone.
8. & 9. Baby Bjorn carriers
10. & 11. Coffee Filter Snowflakes one of the kids made
12. VHS tape of 'Weird Science' - a gift I'm finally mailing
13. to 18. TOPPS baseball cards - also a gift I'm finally mailing
19. to 25. Combs
26. Rubber Bands - this bag has been sitting in the sun and the bands break when stretched at all. Why have they been sitting on my desk driving me crazy every time I need a rubber band? Because I am convinced there are some usable bands in there. However, now I don't care to waste my time finding them. Out they go.
