    Default Fling 2011 Things in 2011 Challenge

    This may be tough for those of us who participated in the 2010 challenge, but I'll bet we can find another 2011 pieces of dust-collecting clutter to rid ourselves of!!

    (And yes, for those of you trying to lose weight, pounds count.)

    I'm in...but I'll only post "totals" here weekly. I'm trying for 8044 in 2011, and if I get rid of all the things I should, it will not be that difficult!

    However, I don't want to hijack the thread, like I did in 2010, so I'll post my daily flings to my get it/keep it current goal, and post totals here weekly.

    This has been a real boon for me and mine, thanks for the challenge!

    I'm in again. And this year I'm going to attempt subtracting things that come into the house.
    I'm kinda afraid to see how much comes in. :/ ~

    Judi and Palooka,

    I think part of the fun of the thread is reading WHAT got flung, so don't think you are boring us with descriptions!
