Item #39

I loved my wallet, but the seams had all burst and stuff didn't say inside it, so it was time to get a new wallet and bid this one farewell :(

Item #26

101 goodbye 026

Our 2.5 quart Corningware cracked. Right down the side. But for some reason, unknown to me, I didn’t throw it out. Even though I had replaced it. It’s gone now.

 

[This is not actually the broken one that lived in our cupboard for months. I forgot to take a picture of it.]

Item #23 & #24

101 goodbye 023 to 024
Last things from that plastic cupboard... So, I could have sent these to the thrift store, but they're so useless they went in the recycling. They're ice cube trays but they're only about 1/3 of a centimetre deep. Which means stupid ice cubes. I tried using them for baby food, but that didn't work either. I'm not sure where they came from, but they're gone now and it's so nice!

Item #22

101 goodbye 022
So technically there are four (or even eight) items here, but I'm calling them a single unit...As I mentioned, I cleared out the plastics cupboard last night. These came to live at our house the day we moved. We picked up lunch at a local restaurant and they gave us plastic kids cups for our drinks because we hadn't unpacked anything at that point. We never used the lids and straws because we were all adults (me, Alex and my parents) but for some reason I never got rid of them. We still have a couple of the cups. J uses them in her bathroom to rinse her mouth...so she doesn't need a lid or a straw! These were also left out for Alex to recycle.

Items #19-21

101 goodbye 019 to 021

I cleaned out the cupboard for plastics and tupperware last night. And I found not one, not two, but three Nalgene bottles. The warning on these came out three years ago. Yet we still have them. And we've moved since then too. I left these out for Alex to take to the recycling this morning, because we're never going to use them again...which is too bad. The pink on was mine and I loved it. I haven't been able to find a good water bottle since...

Item #15

101 goodbye 015

We got this an engagement gift - I love having a spoon rest, but it is not allowed on our new stove top - scratch, scratch, scratch...and because we have a lack of counter space it couldn't stay there. And because it's beat up I wasn't going to put it in the donate box, so it's gone. Bye...

Item #14

101 goodbye 014

This broke. I loved it - it was my loose change purse and usually had a couple small bills in it and it stayed in my desk...it was perfect. But it broke. I wanted to keep it but it kept spilling beads everywhere. I tried to fix it, but it was having nothing to so with that...so I sucked it up and tossed it. And you know what, I don't miss it. But it sure was cute!

Item #1

101 goodbye 001Yes, I do know what scary thing it looks like.

But it's really a dish scrubber. And I hate it. It's ugly, it doesn't work well, it's phallic, it's top heavy and forever falling over.

Best of all?

It's gone.
