730/365 Decluttering Challenge

It's already been a month since Amy over at The Finer Things in Life set up a decluttering challenge.  My goal is to do 2 items a day so that by the end of the year I will have gotten rid of 730 items.  So far I've said goodbye to 44 pieces of STUFF.  I know, I know...it should be 64 items by now...but, I'm getting there.  One thing I've discovered is that it's easier to help someone else get rid of their things than it is to get rid of your own.  Lots of sentimental value in our things...

I've been doing some organizing as I've been going along. I'll put up some pictures in another post.

  2. If you've ever heard of Flylady, then you know her premise-15 minutes at a time. I take that theory to a slightly different level-some days I have to literally tell myself, even one thing picked up is better than none! Those are 44 items that you don't ever have to pick up again, so great job!
