Weekly Roundup: Decluttering Success, “Only Murders in the Building,” DWTS Latin Night, Amigurumi Books, and Care Packages

10/10/2023

On our latest weekly roundup, Terri shares some decluttering success stories, including finding a loving home for her vintage record albums.

What we're watching: On Only Murders in the Building's season finale, "Opening Night" (episode 9), we learn whodunit (that is, the multiple whos who done it) and question the wisdom of having very serious conversations in the wings while a show is underway on stage. Plus, of course, the next murder in the building happens so we're ready for season 4.

On Dancing with the Stars, it was Latin Night, or as Terri called it, "Dresses with Sleeves Night." Bruno continued to impress (?) with his collection of mesh shirts, and there were quite a few enjoyable, well-done dances.

Catherine's library find this week is books on the amigurumi craft craze. Therein, you can find instructions on how to crochet everything from a doughnut-shaped unicorn to Mr. T to a whole family of dinosaurs.

In the archives, we revisit episodes in which we discussed how volunteering can be a runaway train (that we've successfully disembarked from; October 10, 2019), care packages for kids (October 9, 2019), and digital hoarding (October 9, 2017).

Note: After this episode was recorded, but before Terri edited it, she fell and broke her wrist. So if the editing on this episode is even less professional than usual, have mercy. Next week we will be off while Terri has surgery and recovers. We will be back the week after with stories—you can bet on that. Our TV watch will cover Motown and Disney nights on Dancing with the Stars as well as the movie Champions. While we're gone (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available!
