I threw out a gloppy old nailpolish.
43 items gone!

I need to add this goal periodically back onto my list. If I keep at it, perhaps I will actually have ROOM in my house- what a concept!

I don’t want to be a hoarder. I’ve seen people on TV that are WAY WAY more out of control than I am in that department, but I can see some of that behavior in myself, and I don’t know why I do it. Most of it is sentimentality, and some of it is a desire to not be wasteful. I think I just need to change my perceptions on some things. 4 years ago

Finished a sample of eye cream, and finished another little candle. I’m burning a tea light currently, and if that doesn’t finish off this goal, then I’ll find an old nail polish to throw out before I go to bed!
