So thanks to some of my blog friends I had signed up for freecycle in our area. I haven't been able to get a lot from it because so many things are far away. But, I still enjoyed a few things I was able to get.
Well, I had a few boxes of books that didn't sell at my garage sale this summer and then I received a huge pile of Christmas stuff from an older lady who was moving. I was able to choose a few things I could use but had a ton more left. My husband was getting ready to just chuck it all but I realized...Hey, I'll post and see if I get any bites! Well, within 2 days the overwhelming load of stuff from our garage is gone to people who are thrilled to use it!!! Kevin is even excited about Freecycle now but he says for everything I get from them I need to get rid of something.
The other interesting thing is that the two people who came I ended up knowing them or one of their family members and it was a great opportunity to connect. I ended up in a discussion with both of them about geting the mom's group going again...that was God's subtle hint to get going on it.
