As the days and weeks go on, the storage unit continues to shrink little by little.
This time I was able to get rid of some larger items.

GAVE AWAY:
2 Desks (1 set)
1 Box of glassware
2 Fishing Poles
1 Small box of misc items
1 Plastic chair mat
I was able to make a decent sized dent in the storage unit this weekend. I still have little ways to go but it’s shaping up nicely.
I’m still trying to sell my single speed mountain bike, those huge speakers you see in the pictures, and a few other items. I am however, guilty of breaking one of my rules…kinda. I’m planning on buying a new bike once mine sells. The bike will serve multiple purposes and I will use it more than I use my mountain bike now. In that aspect, I’m not really breaking my rules.
That’s right! The past few days I’ve been putting together an ebook. I thought I might as well hop on the band wagon and join the ranks of the ebook club.
My free ebook is simple little guide on how I became a minimalist.
The ebook will include 5 to 6 short chapters and 4 to 5 simple rules to follow. I’ve also included a short about me section and a few personal pointers.
Over the next few days I should hopefully be finishing it up and then beings the fun task of editing and proof reading.
I’d say that in the next week or so I’ll release the ebook. It will be released under the Creative Commons license and will be free to share. I only ask that you don’t modify my work and give credit where credit is due.
I will also be including some links to a few other bloggers out there whom I read on a regular basis. Be sure to keep an eye out!
When I was a young boy and heading into kindergarten I didn’t get along with a lot of the other students. I felt it unnecessary to follow the rules of the classroom. At the time I wasn’t sure why but as I am getting older now, I can look back and really see what has going on.
Again, trying out the video skills. The last video blog had mixed reviews.
This short video I took this morning (-2C) at my storage unit. I stopped by to pick up a few things to take to work and toss into our large garbage bin.
The 5′x8′ unit is starting look even more barren. It’s a far cry from what it was when I first started. Here are a few before/after and what’s going away pictures to help visualize things.
Well another weekend is upon us. I have Sunday and Monday off so that means that I can continue my quest to eliminate my things.
Last weekend was a bust. There were a few issues with my storage unit and I wasn’t able to get in. That really didn’t sit well, but such is life.
This weekend will be different. I have to catch up from missing last week. I hope the weather fairs well and I can get some real work done. Hopefully I can…
Go through 4 boxes
Donate night stands
Donate old TV (since it didn’t sell)
Sell bicycle
Donate at least 1 other large item
That’s what I have planned. Hopefully all will go well. I know that posting my goals really gave me some great motivation to get it done.
Hope everyone has a great weekend and their Football team wins. I’m not much of a fan so I’ll be cleaning.
Do you have any goals for this weekend besides football?
Email is something we all use on a day to day basis but it’s not something that we think about a lot. It has become such a staple of our daily lives that we don’t give it much thought. Kind of like driving or going to work, but it can be a huge time sucker.
Most of my life I have been an I.T. professional. What does that mean in terms of email? It means that I have had a phone with email for many years and it also means that I get A LOT of email. I was used to getting 25 – 75 emails per day. Read the rest of this entry
I’ve always known who Chef Gordon Ramsay was. I knew he was a world famous chef and I knew he did a few TV shows. I also knew he was a bit harsh on people who had horrible food.
Then I got my hands on season 1 of Kitchen Nightmares. As of the past week I’ve burned through ¾ of the season and I’m enjoying the hell out of it. Ramsay is in your face, down your throat, and kicking you in the ass. He has zero tolerance for people who don’t try or even make any effort.
