Declutter wise?

I'm taking a little break from decluttering it was getting a little overwhemling but cleaning out old paper work also and reorganizing the book case. I have no reason not to start a frugal notebook I have plenty of notebooks whew where did they all come from. Good luck Sara with your with your decluttering today.

You are going to crack up ....
dd's bras went to the toss it pile yesterday. She is so funny about bras and can't stand anything that is uncomfortable. We are down to 2 that she will wear (school makes them wear them everyday). What is even funnier is that she doesn't need them in the first place.

More old papers and unmatched socks. I haven't really had the time I've wanted, this week, to toss much. This weekend is crazy as well, with Patrick's baptism, so I may not get to tossing again until next weekend.

I've been working on tossing old papers and clothes that people have outgrown. Our house just never seems to empty out!

Anything that has been in my house more than a year and it's in the same place that it was a year ago. When I was putting up my christmas tree yesterday I brought the junk basket next to the decorations I was putting up. If the decorations were no longer in good condition they got tossed out. My niece came over and said they didn't have that many christmas ornaments so I gave her two med. size bags of christmas ornaments. Lately when I decide to clutter I take the junk basket right with me and toss it right in the garbage, unless it is something that I can take to St. Vincent dePaul's. Slowly but surely I am getting this junk out of my house.

I need to do some flinging. I have a whole sack of books that I need to donate to Friends of the Libary. I need to go through some more and cull out the ones I don't want.
