Another Update.....

OK, I have been holding back on you!!!

Not intentionally of course...

Just part of my current stage of hibernation.

But I am ready!!!

Ready to show you the stuff that the Fly Lady has inspired me to get rid of...

Either to the TRASH heap...

Or to the donation site.

I chatted about the challenge to get rid of 27 things that are throw away and 27 things that can be donated. Not sure where that arbitrary number came from but I am sure there is some logic to it.

Here is SOME of the trash!

Part of the 27 items I tossed
I say SOME because I also had stuff that had made it to the trash before I remembered to take a pic.

Next we have...

Clothes Donation to Good Will
And.....

Books to be donated or taken to 1/2 Price Books

Did you notice my little pup checking out the pile to make sure that I wasn't throwing any of her stuff out?

She just wouldn't move.

I am kinda disapointed tho as the pile of clothes doesn't look that big but it filled a large kitchen trash bag. And it sure was heavy!!!!

SO, did I hit the mark of 27 trash items and 27 donated items?

You bet I did.

And I feel GREAT.

Come summer I will do another one of these challenges  and maybe some of my summer clothes will say their last goodbye and be sent off to Goodwill too.

Until next time......

YEAH! Doesn't it make you feel a bit lighter to get rid of "stuff?" You go girl!

Kim thanks to you I have started getting rid of stuff I should have tossed years ago. I had clothes I haven't worn in over 6 years! I am almost finished with the bedroom and living room, only 4 more rooms to go! Praise the Lord! Love you.

Congratulations on your recent purging ☺ It always feels so good to make room, doesn't it. It is easier to breathe and to move, to dream and to dare to do something new. I hope this opens up wonderful creative possibilities for you. ☺

Books are the hardest things for me to part with. Rick bought me a Nook last year for Christmas so that I can save some shelf space. Now, I am reading the new books that I buy, and if I don't need them for reference, I am passing them on. I try to live by the one thing in two things out rule. Sometimes I do okay and other times, Yikes! ☺ ~Blessings, Janet
