YAY!!

FINALLY! I just got my first Oprah's Clutter Crew cleaning newsletter with assignments for the month!! I am SO excited!!! I have just about finished the "trashbag tango" in our home-spending time daily throwing things out and/or giving things away in an attempt to get rid of clutter. I had, at best, 3 days and I would have gone through the entire house. I was getting nervous on what to do next because I didn't have any direction and I wanted to stay on the program. Now I can. Whoo Hoo!! (Seriously, I'm not even being sarcastic, I'm super excited!)

Side note: I have currently donated 5 kitchen trashbags and 4-6 moving boxes worth of things to the Good Will. That is equivalent to filling my compact car (and trunk) about 1.5 times. Crazy, huh? And that doesn't really measure what I've toss-although most have been give aways with lots and lots of recycling of papers we don't need. (I convinced myself and John that papers we wrote in college would never be used again and we recycled them.)
