shopping diet

i really like this idea (though i might need to up it to a dirty dozen). i'm inactively obsessed with trying to get rid of A LOT of what i've accumulated over the years in the way of housewares and bodywares. i really want to have a yardsale, but i'm afraid no one will show up. seriously, that's my biggest hurdle. silly, but true. also, i don't know where to begin. there is a lot i'd like to get rid of, and i'd also like to try to make a few clams off it while i'm at it. i'm still a little too much of my own charity case not to try to make some money first, but the rest will go to goodwill.
