Another season of Aging Gracefully would be "Clean Up." Spring cleaning is vital in keeping things in order. We can name a few places that can use some help; Garage Always the place where everyone puts away unused items. Finding a time to sort through and organize this area would be helpful. You can cash in some unused items by setting up a small yard sale just for a few hours. You can donate some items that family or neighbors can use, or even give to the Goodwill.
