Quite a few things less

As it turned out most of the items I found that could be donated to Red Cross last Friday were books. I tried to pick ones that I was personally a bit disappointed with, and could not e.g. give to friends with recommendations. I also realized that there are still quite a few books that are very good, but have no re-read value for me. Those may end up here at some point, or I may take them to a second hand book store here in Helsinki. We'll see.

I also took the Cartman plush toy with me as it ended up to be given away to charity.

I hope to have the next item to be given away up in a few days. Stay tuned :)

Red Cross week

This week will be a bit special. I have an opportunity to donate clothes, home appliances, toys, sports gear, books, and furniture to the Finnish Red Cross on Friday. So instead of posting a single item, I will post everything that goes to the Red Cross - as soon as I have time and energy to do a bit of scavenge hunting in our apartment :)

Next week should be normal again, and I will continue giving one thing away.

Cartman Plush Toy

Item status: Donated to charity

The second item I will be giving away is this plush toy of Cartman from the TV-show South Park. There's not really anything more to say about this that can't already be seen from the picture.

I was not expecting to have any emotional attachment to this item, but apparently I did because putting it up here made me feel a pang of loss or regret. Getting rid of things might not turn out to be the easiest exercise after all, but I think this shows it's even more necessary for me to do.

*** If you are interested in the item, leave your offer in the comments, or let me know if you'd want this but are not willing to pay for it. Cheers! ***
