Managed to get the closet under the stairs cleaned out today!
Here's what is being added to the toy library...
I think that's finally all of it.
I moved the pile from our attached garage to the big garage for now.
Next, I'll need to sort through it all and make sure stuff works.
I'm still struggling with ideas for a structure to put this in.
I feel like it needs to look cute and inviting, but not too large that the city might have a problem with it being in the front yard. 🙄🤔
One thing at a time.
The house feels more peaceful without all the distractions.
The kids have plenty of stuff still to choose from and clean up time goes much more smoothly.
I'll keep updating as I get more accomplished on this project. I want people to have some kind of blueprint how to do this.
It seems like this idea is big in Australia, most places run it like a traditional library though. I want this to be a more freely given type of situation. Take that you need, leave what you don't.
I don't want to run it as a business, I just want people to start getting the idea that sharing really is caring. If we make things accessible, for free, it eases so much stress that we can focus on other things.
I think after 10 years of being a Resource Based Economy fan, I'm switching into RBE existence.
Jacque Frescos vision of what we could become once we enacted change on a social level was so large, and spanned so far into the future that people could see it happening right now.
Just like that, change the world overnight.
But that was never jaques message. He made that clear, the world would not adopt RBE in 1day, it would be a gradual transition. And it has been...
Now it's bumpy and we need people to steer in the direction of RBE. I'm taking the wheel where I can and steering. I hope people will follow. ☺💗
