We’re more than halfway through the month of August already! Time flies.
How are you doing with the 5/day challenge?
You saw my Goodwill load, and I had a small bag of stuff to giveaway, a bag of recycling, and a bag of trash. We also put out a few things at the curb which were promptly picked up. (or neighborhood is full of “trash pickers” on trash day, and we never have anything usable go to waste)
Even while on vacation at my parent’s house I continued decluttering. I recycled or threw out some expired items in my Mom’s fridge and pantry. We won’t talk about the grossness that is dressing from 2007.
I’m still going little by little through every drawer, every load of laundry, every nook and cranny to find things, and 5/day has NOT been a challenge.
If you count all 6 of us I should be doing 30/day, and I think I’m pretty close to that number most days.
By cutting back on what we own, we don’t need to tidy up or clean up as much, and there is less to do.
Today I’m tackling the kitchen. I’m sure there is at least a dozen things I can donate, that are rarely used.
How is your challenge going?
