I wanna join...even though ya'll have a 4 month head start on me!! I'm in the process of decluttering...but nothing has actually made it out of the house yet except for trash to the curb (mostly a couple boxes, a bedframe, a bookshelf, and a few bags in the garage waiting for the neighborhood yard sale or Goodwill...and a couple boxes of books to sell online or take to Half Price Books to see what I can get for them). So since nothing but trash (including about 4 kitchen trash bags of shredded papers!) has actually left the house yet...I will count the set aside stuff toward my total cause I think it will give me a boost to see a bunch of numbers to get me off to a great start!!

I'll come back tomorrow or Wednesday to post my first totals once some stuff is hauled off (it's yucky and stormy and we aren't getting out of the house today).

[pear-shaped]

magazine
2 broken toy cars
some old elastic
threadbare socks
weird non-absorbant washcloth
3 old bath toys
old sandals
old sneakers
old scratched-up pizza pan that has not been used in at least five years
plastic thing that holds water and hangs on radiator to make humidity (I have no idea what it's called in English, lol)
random lid
beads from a broken bracelet (I usually save beads)
keychain
sun visor
