I just got sucked into reading Amy's thread, and I'm so jealous
If I could get 500 things out of here, I would do the happy dance. I'm seriously starting to feel smothered in this house.
If anyone's up for tackling a new one, I'll set the thread up for it!
------------
OK, so, the "rules," borrowed from Amy's October challenge. Amy, if this isn't ok, would you let me know? Thanks!
"Here is what counts:
anything you sell on the tp, ebay, Craigslist etc
anything you freecycle, give back to the rightful owners, donate, give away.
anything you throw out but I would much rather somehow get the item back out there thats not possible and I will also be throwing stuff out.
If you have a small box of your old college papers in the attic and you toss it- its one item. If you also toss your dh's box as well, its two items.
The old mayo jar in the fridge counts as an item, two separate happy meal toys count as two items.
If someone is doing a can goods drive, give them a few good items, they count!
You old tax record from 1998 counts as one item to be shredded.
500 sounds like a lot but once you get started you will be surprised how fast you can drum up 500 items and then some! I go thru everything when I do this down to the makeup drawer and over the washer shelf.
Remember you have an entire month to do this so pace yourself...
Post your successes and how you are doing with your count as we go!"
Hooray! I'm so excited
