This Week’s Catchers
Thanks to Cluttercast, it’s not hard anymore to let go of something; the hard part is CHOOSING where to send it. For the pink Prada bag, that meant either staying up all night agonizing or picking out of a hat.
So I chose sleep. And I chose Monkey’s Momma (out of a hat non-Prada bag) : ”Pink is my favorite color! I would LOVE to have this purse!! Thanks for the chance to win!”
Obviously the random method has its benefits—-and its drawbacks—and I’m open to suggestions or feedback.
Susan Laves: I think that my mother would love them for mother’s day. When I was a small child, we lived for a time in Japan and I think that she would enjoy them.
The Peter Walsh organizing system is still open. Meanwhile I guess no one’s interested in seeing her husband in a pair of tight baseball pants…..
Thanks to everyone for commenting and reading!!

I didn’t end up sleeping much anyway, not only from reading commenters’ blogs—but from wondering if I made the right call in choosing randomly for these items.
As a breast cancer survivor myself, I read Wendy Brewer’s comment and in addition to feeling empathy for anyone with cancer, I also admire Wendy’s gesture as a friend. On the other hand, in such difficult times, I am guessing all 48 people who commented could tell us 48+ stories.
I often don’t feel capable of making a decision about who is more “deserving” of any item. This has been an issue for me since Cluttercast started; and I don’t want to make Cluttercast about that. This seemed like the time to try leaving it to fate and the universe.
Please feel free to let me know what you think.
I wouldn’t want to pick if I were the one having to do it. It would be too hard just choosing one. I would probably do the “easy” thing and just make it random.
It might also be nice, in a way, for the people leaving comments because it takes the sting out of someone else being picked. After all it’s just a random number!
But it’s also nice to hear the reasons people want things, so it would be a shame to lose that. It’s nice for people to tell their stories.
Thank you and I agree about the stories; it’s a key element of Cluttercast and I don’t want to lose that. Until I figure this out, I can already predict more sleepless nights ahead….LOL.
Thank you so much, Darryle.
