Take it to Goodwill someday (I have reasons for not wanting to do this)? Ugh. I need to just put them in the trash.
I tried to put my exercise step in the trash bag - it didn't really fit, so that's going back to Goodwill (we have to pay per trash bag here). My two french presses I haven't used in several years -- why keep them? Why am I keeping this stuff???????? Who keeps a broken Kindle?

Don't feel too bad. We do this too. We'll gather a bunch of stuff near the front door so we'll remember to take it to Goodwill, & then it just sits there gathering dust instead. Finally we just said screw it & starting throwing stuff away, because then at least we were getting it out of the house.
