    Default Fill 'Em Up!

    Okay, ladies...time to get a grocery bag (or similar sized bag) and take a walk-through of your home and fill it up with trash. Broken things, extra papers, wrappers, junk mail, etc. Fill up that bag and take it right outside! Believe me, you'll feel better once you do!

    Great idea Amy. I do this every morning before hubby
    leaves the house. So when he leaves all trash goes
    with him. Great way to stay decluttered.
    Thanks

    Anyone else? It's not a one-day deal! We can declutter like this EVERY day until we have NO MORE CLUTTER!!!

    This past weekend I did that with our guest room. I wanted to get out at least one bag, ended up throwing out 3 garbage bags full.
    ....old holy socks, plastic toys' of Paiges, old papers we don't need, some clothes that were to worn out to give away.....

    boy did it feel great to get all that thrown out.

    I cleaned under DD and DS bed this weekend, threw out one bag of junk! What a great feeling! Wonder how long it will last?
