I'm doing 42 things
I have passed both my written and my practical exams for State Board. But I misplaced my paperwork…
So I ordered new paperwork and all I have left to do is pay $50 worth of licensing fees and I will be official!!

How I did it
It made me 
How I did it: My entire stretching experience has been documented here on 43 things. For details of these events, please refer back to those posts. It took me 2 1/2 years overall. I began by having my ear pierced by a licensed body piercer at a 8g. After that had fully healed, I began stretching using tapers, plugs, & tape. I tried to wait several months between stretches but will admit that things got rushed at least a couple of times. The most im… Read how I did it…

...was the first day cleaning out my old house that I’ve been using to store all the nonsense that I don’t use. Finally. It has been sitting empty of human life for years.
I threw away 25 of those large industrial trash bags worth of useless items, donated 2 boxes of items, and kept 10 boxes of items. A total of 2 interior rooms and 1/2 of the garage was cleaned out in the first day. There are 6 rooms and 1/2 the garage left to clean. Tomorrow will be the second day in this project.
I will probably end up with about 50 boxes of “keep” items plus furniture. I will then sort the items in these 50 boxes again in order to eliminate another 50% of those items and organize them into what to move to my new house and what to put into a storage unit.
Once this project is done, I hope to be motivated to throw away 50% of the items in my new house to make room for what I will be transporting. I have suffered from hoarding tendencies (obviously) in the past and am working hard to remedy the situation and create a healthy living environment.
