Several of my 43 Things actually tie into this over-reaching one.
I’m tired of not being able to have friends over, and I can’t host play dates or parties.
The only way I’ll ever have a dedicated workspace is to make the common areas presentable.

I stopped keeping track of what’s left the house in the past few years, but I know it’s included several boxes of maternity, boy, and baby clothes, two exersaucers, a swing, and a few boxes of books. I suppose I could count some rosemary trimmings from our bushes out front. Taken individually, I’m sure I’ve met the 100-item mark, but it doesn’t really seem to be a significant amount volume-wise.
If we are really going to give up on living in the country and move into a smaller lace in town, we are going to have do some major purging, and this will help when we finally have that deadline.
