Whoo-Hoo! This is fun. I cleaned out half my room (it's really horrible) and I have 12 bags. About 6 of trash stuff, 3 of too small clothes I put on freecycle, 2 bags of too small or too big clothes I am keeping (maybe not actually getting rid of, but they are bagged up and in the closet where they belong). And 1 bag of misc stuff for freecycle. So 12/20 bags!!!!

Isn't it great? I'm so enjoying all of the empty space in my house. I've found that being in rooms (in my house or others' homes) with a lot of clutter makes me really nervous. Maybe I'm getting a little Zen-like in my old age?

Today's numbers

Just took a bag to GoodWill with 35 things. Oh yeah!!!

I will dig deeper tomorrow as today was a kind of restful day.

Total so far: 225/350.

Thanks for reading

Iced in here today in the 'nati with the kiddies home from school. Great day to declutter -- another box of stuff! My dining room table is full! Now if the weather clears, I can load up the car and get to SVDP.

I feel a little sick about it today, though, when I realize how much sh** I've accumulated for no good reason. What a waste of money and energy. <SIGH>

I feel like Scarlett O'Hara -- "As God as my witness, I'll never fill this house with useless crap again!"

We took all the boxes to the recycling center today, I had already counted most in Jan, yes they were in dhs truck for that long...but we added two dish packs filled with packing paper that I guess we were saving for the next time we moved. We did try to freecycle these 4 times, but 4 no shows : and figured we would get rid of everything at once.

[lalaland42]

I bought a spice rack

and now I am getting rid of my assorted bags of spices.

4 bags so far for a total of 9/50 items this month.

3 tools bought to redo a desk we no longer have
3 big empty boxes
4 big piles of papers

[katytheprincess2]

My goal is 200 items atleast...We are now faced with having to move so I will be starting this asap The good news...there is a charity right down the street that could use tons of the stuff I need to get rid of :

[KKmama]

THis is my first challenge and we are already halfway through the month, I'm going to set myself a goal of 500 items. Shoot high and reach for the moon!!!! I'm nursing ds right now, and anxious to get started as soon as he's done!

Todays count: 329/500

I did one last run through of the kitchen and went through some old craft supplies. I'll be hitting the den next week. That room is scary. So if I don't post in awhile you might want to send someone to come look for me.

Have a great weekend!
