Here we are, less than 6 months later and I SOLD the computer cabinet! Craigslist, I love you! Actually I don’t think I posted it until after Easter, so really, it only took about 3 months to sell. It was worth it. I had a price that I’d be happy with. Originally I posted for $300 more than that (what the heck, right?) No hits, then I brought it down by $100 increments twice and then reposted high just last week. A woman emailed asking if I’d accept the number I was originally thinking and she just came today with a deposit and will pay the balance when she picks it up. Yippee!

It is a good piece of furniture but I calculated the cost to us over the 11 years we’ve had it….$100/year. That may not sound like much but considering I haven’t needed it for work since 2000 or so, I’ve had it exactly 10 years longer than I needed it. Ouch!

I think I’m more excited about the space it will free up than the cash. It will also force me to purge what was left in there and reorganize and make my other spaces more efficient to make room for the things that I do keep. All good.
