Scott: That’s the last bag. Help me put these
into the truck. I want to get these to the
thrift store before they stop taking
donations for the day.
Nancy: Hold on! That bag has
curtains in it.
Scott: I know they do. Those old curtains have
been sitting around in the
closet for 10 years. It’s time to
let them go.
Nancy: But what about this bag? These are the
children’s old baby clothes. You can’t just
toss these! They have such
sentimental value.
Scott: You’ve kept a lot of the children’s old
clothes already, but we still have bags and bags
of them in the attic.
Nancy: Yes, but they’re so cute.
Scott: It’s time to put aside
sentiment and do some spring
cleaning. After all, we’re donating them
to a good cause. Families visiting the
thrift store can buy them for their own children.
We get a tax deduction and our items
get a new life. It’s a win-win for
everybody.
Nancy: I don’t know about that. What?! You’re
not getting rid of those chairs, are you? They
still have a lot of life in them.
Scott: Our garage is so full of old furniture that
we don’t use. I’m putting my foot
down. These have to go.
Nancy: But not those...
Scott: Yes, those and those and those. This is
my punishment for marrying a pack
rat!
