I had to depart my way with my granny's freezer yesterday. It was not easy. I really liked to keep it, but as the bookshelves have not gone, I am afraid something else has to go. I talked with my sis yesterday about how her hubby had asked if he needed the trailer aka if I had such little stuff to take back. Right... All I have is the sofa, bed, computer desk, bookshelves, night table and... So lots of stuff still. I have been able to get rid of quite a bunch of stuff. I have donated to goodwill; I have donated to friends and to foreign students who are coming to live here.
I did a rough calculation that if I would have sold the items, I probably would be about 400 euros richer now. If the people would have to buy the items from the store (that I have donated to them) then the value of it would be over 1000 euros. So I think I have done my good deed for the year. Of course I would rather have the money. I am not that rich that I could say that it doesn't make any difference. But I rather give the items away than through it away. I have sold some, so I am not giving it all to the charity. Also if you believe in Karma, this means that there should be some good Karma coming my way. I am all for that!
