The four puzzles with missing pieces are on the right. I was disappointed that the ocean puzzle in the canister was missing pieces, because I remember that being a fun one, but I counted the pieces twice and came up short both times. Oh well. The puzzle in the middle went to the rapidly-growing snowday shelf, and the puzzle on the left is back in the basement and probably going to Goodwill later in the challenge. To be honest, there's nothing wrong with it and we could still get some use out of it, but I have picked up the pieces for that one so many times that I'm pretty sure I can't do it again without losing my mind. And we have no shortage of fun puzzles.
For Day 5 I was going to find things to trash/recycle in the toy heap, but the first several things I found while poking around were all best suited for Goodwill, so I decided to do some work in the coal cellar instead. Although it still has a coal door to the outside, it was turned into a walk-in storage closet long before we moved in, so we just use it for a variety of different things (many of which you'll be seeing over the next few weeks). Today I was able to find five things to get rid of almost immediately:
What we have here is a dried-up paint set (I think maybe it was used to paint a birdhouse?), an old science kit, a very old and nonfunctional Simon, a jar of expired peanut-butter substitute, and a green bag of random trash. I recycled what I could and put the rest into the trash.
On to Day 6 tomorrow!
