Can I sell books that the library throws away?
You may not want to do that because: 1. It has pages whereas the librarian stamped the name of the library, if people will see that and you will sell that, you may be ask by the buyers as to where you've accumulated that. People working in the library and those who know the lib may suspect you negatively as to why you have those books. Librarians are actually not allowed to sell anything from the library may it be obsolete, damaged, etc. that's why options are only to weed that out of the library or donate it. If you will ask the librarian to get the books, chances are, you will not be given permission especially if you will mention that you will sell those. You can mention though that you wanted to donate it but if you're planning to sell it, think of the consequence I've mentioned. It was stamped discarded simply because it was discarded from the library for a reason. e.g. inadequate collection for the library, wrong imprints, etc.
Do I have to throw away the makeup I used since I have a sty?
Your eye infection will not get better as long as you use the same mascara or the same eye treatment. Try to avoid touching the eye area. Also all the brushes, and eye makeup and eye treatments need to be replenish. Get mascara one time use wands, and use once and trough it out. Do not dip your finger in the eye cream, use q-tip to remove product out and apply only on the bone areound the eye area. Also eye rinses with saline lotion is great or natural ailment is cammomile tea compreses on the eyes as often as possible. Of course consult a doctor as well to make sure the condition is under control. KANATA ESTHETICS
Should you throw away old scrapbook pages with an ex boyfriend in them after you get married?
I've scrapbooked since I was 14, and I have several pages of pictures in a scrapbook that I made during my teenage years that have us together in them. No kissy pictures or anything like that. I would throw them away, but a lot of the other pictures on the same pages are of me having fun with other friends at the same event, etc... My husbands never shown any sign of jealosy, but at the same time, it does seem odd having pictures of your ex boyfriend around? Should I just pull them all up and glue something else down there?
How do you know what to throw away when decluttering? Example, I have a Hookah that I haven't used in a year taking up space, but I might use it one day.
I am a Master Declutterer. Always have been, but aged 40 and with the accumulation of "the things of life" you get with a house and a mortgage, it came time to move on.I'm fairly ruthless in my decluttering; that is, if it's not inherently useful, it will probably go (the joy in things is reasonably fleeting, and most things - photos, books, etc) can be stored digitally these days which makes life much easier.I have come to develop one simple rule I call the "2:2 rule" that will make your decision making process easy:First 2: "Have I used this item in the last 2 years?" that gives you 2 complete cycles of the seasons; for example, if it's something like a tent, and it was a bad summer last year, and you like camping, you can keep it. If it's an orange jumper and you've not worn it for 3 years (because secretly, you don't really like it) it goes.Second 2: "Will I use this item in the next 2 months?". This is about as reasonably far as someone like myself can see into the future, or reasonably put off tasks to do, which gives myself time to use this item if I don't need it now, but think I might find use for it. If I'm going to only need it in a year, it's time to get rid of it, and I can worry about getting a new one then.There are of course a few things that you may allow by, such as family heirlooms, some treasured photos of your mum, tax returns, or stuff like that, and that's OK. You need to recognise what those things are, vs the things that actually bring you no value at all and are just functions of your misplaced psychological attachment.As mentioned, this is a pretty ruthless way of looking at things, so feel free to tailor the numbers, such as 3:3, or 2:6, however, do not cheat yourself out of decluttering by being soft - remember the rationale for the 2s - each one has a very good reason for being a 2 and not something else.One final reminder I have to keep myself sane, is to ask myself "what I would save if there was a fire?" (or a flood if that's too scary for you!). For me, it's my laptop, some clothes, and an awesome bag - pretty much what I would take if I go travelling - everything else is just fluff :)Oh, and a piece of bonus advice to keep you on the straight and narrow: DON'T accept new things into your life! That includes presents, freebies, ANYTHING. You don't need it, and 9 times out of 10 you will be happier without it.Good luck! Be ruthless. And go digital (I recommend WorkFlowy to both organise your thoughts and your life).
Should I confiscate and throw away fashion maazines when girls are reading them during lesson times?
You definitely should confiscate them. I don't believe you should rip them up, because this could cause some freak parents so get angry, especially if these parents are more interested in fashion that learning also. Here is my advice... confiscate them and tell the girls they can have them back if their parents come and pick them up. Either the parents come and they get busted, or they let you keep the fashion magazines, which they know cannot read. It is a policy my school uses on cell phones, will much success.
