Destination: it's second life is going to be a garbage bag. Then it will go into the garbage. At least we can repurpose it.
All washed up
What: one baby towel -- well loved!
Why kept: ahhh many fond memories of bath nights and The Boy. It might be useful but we have so many others...
Last used: it's been awhile, it was on the bottom of the pile
Destination: textile recycling
I wish I could find a NFP textile recycler in Chicago but for now I will be glad it's not in a landfill!

It's a chopper, baby
This line from Pulp Fiction comes to mind when I see a helicopter or a chopper motorcycle
What: broken toy chopper
How long kept: broken -- about 6 months. I don't know where the other part is
Why kept: it's a beloved $1 toy.
Destination: trash
Watch for items coming soon from The Boy. He is doing the "Riley Challenges" from FlyLady.net.

Landshark
What: shark confetti
Why? As a joke for a friend that is afraid of them. I think we put some on her desk @ work. I could have mailed them to her but... She doesn't need them either
How long kept: 3 years or so
Destination: they went to the free4 all

Rubber ducky.... You're (not) the one
What: two grungy duckies
Last used: a few baths ago
Why kept: aarrggghhh I just thought about going to save the princess duckie!! The Boy loves to play with that one and the pirate ducks! Argh. No .... Resist. Deeeep breath!!! Ok, I'm ok. Enough said?
Destination: trash
Well I haven't quite had a duck for duck exchange, but more ducks will succumb to the mildew monster. The others are okay.... Really :)
