get rid of 20 pounds of clutter

I got rid of 22 pounds total as best I could tell. Yay!

edit: I’m not sure why 43T has this recorded as me failing the challenge since I posted this entry April 6th and that was the last day to do it by… That’s rude.

I’ve previously gotten rid of the first 10 pounds and tonight makes 3.4 pounds more gone. (Digital scales are nifty.) So, only 6.6 pounds to go. Yay.

It’s time this was off my list. Ten pounds or more gone by April 6th or else no candy for me on Easter day, plus I will continue to have too much crap in my house.

Yesterday I rid myself of 14 books, today I got rid of 15. I would say that has to weigh at the least 10 pounds since almost all of the ones today were hardcovers. I tried to judge it compared to a gallon of water which weighs roughly 8 pounds (holding one in each hand and then swapping) and I would say it’s definitely at least 10.

So half way there… yay!

I just realized I won’t be home on the 12th and in fact won’t be home from now, the 5th, until the 16th. Soooo, this goal’s date will need to be revised.

Clutter weighs me down more than anything else. So I will rid myself of 20 pounds of it.

The end date for this goal is July 12th, 3 weeks from today.
