30 bags in 30 days. This bag was actually a basket of laundry. It went to the laundromat, cleaned, folded and home.

Rob said, "Wait, what do you mean I have to clean that area again? I cleaned it already." robnoxious007! That's happened to me, too! It always gets worse before it gets better. Eventually, it becomes easier because there's not so much stuff in your way, and spaces STAY clean! As I look around now... I don't miss what I've gotten rid of... I don't even remember WHAT it WAS!

I totally forgot about the ton of papers I shredded yesterday. My shredder was already full, so I emptied it into a bag when I started and then emptied once I finished. That was ONE BAG.
10 out of 35

I took out about ten bags or equivalent two days ago. Cleaning out four boxes of stuff. Got it down to one box and recycled the others. The boxes were behind the chair that I had to move because it got broken. Found papers back to 2007! *edited to add* that is so great about the lady who you gave your crib to mama angie

5/21 was DHs birthday so it was a bit of a slow day. I did put away or find a forever home for 4 inches of "keepable stuff" at school and 10 mins of digital clutter. ohblondieI will honestly say I do feel very free, it has taken years to stumble upon this reality, it happened as I was getting a to do list ready after spending 2 weeks of worrying and working on my National Boards and then a 72 hour binge of writing. As I started getting that list together of all the stuff that I had not done I just felt all the bad feelings creep in and in that moment I just told myslef "NO I WILL NOT DO THIS" I do not have to spend time catching up I just have to move forward. :-Xglad that a moment in my life helped you. Not Catch Up Moving Forward -- ONWARD

I've fallen off the wagon. Too many distractions in my life right now. One bag of trash out this morning... I'll be taking off for a few days then I'll be back, hopefully in full force!

I understand Ally. I didn't start the first day you started the challenge. And with work (stupid hours), lack of sleep, lack of energy, 3 kids, I figure whatever I do is great. I did quite a few chores in the house at least today. Hubby got the grass cut which is good since he trimmed a bunch of the bushes in the front yard yesterday. I think that counts for a bag for him. And it'll keep our neighbors from taking pity on us and mowing the grass when we are gone. The last weekend it was mowed was Easter weekend. We came back from Easter dinner at my mom's to a mowed yard. !

Thank you, robnoxious007, my day would not be the same, if you had not posted your bag. I always look for this thread to see if you were here.
