I think I tossed at least 5 bags of trash from there. I still have more work to do there and then I think I will start to tackle the attic.

I cleaned out the yard, and now I am tackling the front porch. We have more trash going out than we ever have. I am really trying to toss as much as possible. I hope to finish the porch in the next couple weeks, and then I am going to hit the attic.
I am slowly working towards this one. I have a long way to go. Basicially I’ve been focusing more on cleaning up and organizing rather than throwing away. I need to start trashing/giving away more stuff.
My goal was 3 bags of trash, I only got rid of one. At least I made it up there. I am going to try and get up there at least once a week cause there is a lot of crap up there that I need to get rid of.
I plan on going up to my attic today and seeing what I can get rid of. I am setting a mini goal of 3 trashbags full of stuff.
I am getting better though. I have been much better about throwing things away and bringing stuff home. I just have so much and it’s so hard to let go of that I might need it someday mentality.
Although I did get rid of a trash bag full of stuff this week.
saz is being happy
got rid of so much stuff and the flat too!
need a new place to fill with stuff
Go to www.freecycle.org to find a Yahoo Group in your area where you can give AND receive people’s “too good to throw aways”
We freecycled EVERYTHING when we moved to Edinburgh from Australia, AND we then used it to get things FROM when we arrived… We gave away all our furniture and computer and things, then started again by getting our TV, our clothes dryer, heaps of things off it…
Check it out, it’s great!
I did a flylady mission today, throw away 27 things and give away 27 things. Most of it was magazines or books though, I suppose thats better than nothing.
