Tuesday's "Clean Me" activity was going through the big stack of magazines on the dining room table and disposing of any dated before October 1. Since some dated back to April, packing them away made a difference.
I hate throwing them out. I don't like the waste, and I can get something from every issue. On the other hand, if I haven't read them yet I'm not going to. So out they go!
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
I'm down to one magazine in print and one in digital form. I just don't pore over them as I used to. And it saddens me. I've been a life-long magazine fan.
ReplyDeleteWith the advent of the Internet, I think we're all reading less print lately.
ReplyDeleteMagazines are usually recyclable, and may be gladly received by elementary schools for art projects. For next time. :)
Good for you! The pile is smaller, and you can see the difference!
when I get a magazine if I find an article recipe or coupon I want I tear that page out right away and file it in my filing system then when that folder gets large I go back through it one more time and discard anything I don't want maybe this would be helpful for you
