I want to start putting your things away; for example, the clothes that are in the closet, and a variety of other things still in the house. There's no particular urgency, I just need to do it. Wanted to ask what you prefer - do you want to pack these things up, do you want me to do it, etc. Please let me know.
How about a little re-write:
Hey, I just started burning your things; for example, the clothes from your closet and a variety of other flammable things still in the house. There's no particular urgency...anymore. Wanted to ask if you prefer the ashes in a box or flushed down the toilet. Please let me know.
