Wow!!!! What a great job!
I was offline fri-sun so I am checking in now.
I started a donate bag, washed and dried and packed about 20 items of clothing. Picked up and tossed/shredded/filed easily 100 pieces of paper that were lingering on the kitchen floor. A box tipped over and sat there forever......
I also started picking up papers in the upstairs hall that were from another toppled and collapsed box....sigh....

Forgot to update yesterday.
I'm not sure if what I did really counts, but I gathered and sorted the laundry. Then I put all my music onto my computer, and then onto a flash drive. Eventually, I want to release all my CDs to make more room on my shelves. So, the project went toward that goal. I'm just not ready to do it yet. I'm afraid something will happen to the files on my computer, and that I'll lose the flash drive or something. I'm counting it anyway.
Today, I did two loads of laundry.

I am so excited to read these updates - slow and steady wins the race. This is not about how much gets done - but how consistently something gets done!
I did not do much last night other than laundry and loading the dishwasher. Tonight I will do some catching up.

Dropped off another return last night. I'm almost done with the "going into stores" returns. Have a few to ship back. It is nice to see money flowing back to the account instead of vice versa!!

Everyone here is doing so well!
My weekly(ish) report:
Items: cat knick knack, Swiffer stick vacuum (too light-duty for my needs), coffee mug, green sweater, green hoodie, white towel, yellow towel (I almost need to create a separate Lent donations for towels; I have way too many!)
Books: Four softcover, three hardcover. (These and the next seven are easy choices; after that it's going to get tougher).
So that's 14 items to date, right on track. Easy to keep count of since we started on March 1st. March 40th will be here before we know it!
Good job all!

Last night was crazy busy so I just dealt with 40 things. I threw away some things, I picked up some things off the floor and finished the 40 picking up papers from the endless pile.
It is easier to "see" things on the floor as I have picked up so much. I am just overwhelmed by the sheer number of papers that are piled up all allover.

I was unwell yesterday. I didn't fulfill my challenge. So, today, I did an hour's worth of work in the apartment. I don't think I've been checking in everyday, but I've been doing stuff.

March 7th - DM emptied out a box stored in her room. I will count it as "things out of my home!". March 8th - cleaned out two fridges and took the garbage/recycling from the week's projects out to the street. I normally wouldn't count the fridge because I try to do that every week. However, this time I threw away a whole bunch of "DM" food that I don't need or don't like from countertops, the fridges, and the cupboard. So, a little extra went above and beyond my regular purge.
