      The last thing I gave away was money, and that was earler today.

      Covered a medical expense for someone who lacked the means.

          Well, even though I still have not fixed the zipper on my coat, I just gave away a second coat I liked perfectly well. My neighbor had given it to me. I've recently made friends with another neighbor who had no coat at all, so of course I gave her the one that had been given to me. I hope she really likes and will wear it. So far she has been just making do with a sweater. If I never see her wear the nice coat, I'm afraid I will wish I had it back.

                  lol... as i posted in the thread about stuff, i'm purging so there's plenty of stuff to give away... i generally try to find out if anybody in the family wants it first... if not, then i'll give it away to whoever seems like they might need it... most recent non-family stuff? clothes and misc stuff for a co-workers family... most recent family stuff? x-mas decorations for the workplace...

                        Earlier today I sent CashHappySon off to work with men's winter coveralls that no longer fit either of mine but will fit one of his co-workers' sons whom we also go to church with.

                        Located this morning one of the boys' had a too small t-shirt in his dresser and a pair of shorts that won't fit anyone here...tomorrow they'll go in a sack and off to his work for the same family.

                          I wanted to declutter and yet there were so many things that were sentimental to me and someone advised that I find individual people to give them to so they would have a good home (so to speak). I had had a monthly gettogether dinner with a ladies group and I put all of these things in a box and told them to go and look and take whatever they wanted because I was giving it away. They were totally thrilled and I felt good about donating to people I knew.

                            The last thing I gave away was a dress a friend will wear this Saturday on an alumni homecoming celebration.
