I'm sorry about promising photos but the whole pile of bulk garbage pick up was gone as soon as I got up this morning. I put a twin mattress and box springs, two vacuums , one shelving unit and two walkers. I also put items like that ...broken, nobody can use them, into my trash cans to fill them up: 1 garden hose and a part of a grandfather clock that was broken. I am over the moon about this trash haul-off and I plan to do this again next week with pictures. Thank you ...I am grateful.

Wow, good work def! I'll bet you freed up a lot of space with all those things out.
I got rid of 38 more difficult papers from the file cabinet, so I'm at 95 out of 400.

Great Job dtesposito on your papers. I've targeted my laundry room for a clean out and it's going pretty slow at the moment. All laundry is done, products have been gone through for donation, machines have been wiped down, all trash removed. Now I've got the tough part to do, the other stuff that has taken up residence in there ...maybe it will go tomorrow.

I like the 400 paper challenge. I'm starting a bit late so at 10 papers per day I need to do 80 to get caught up. I have plenty of paper piles to work with.
day 1 - 10
day 2 - 10
day 3 - 10 day 4 - 10 day 5 - 10 day 6 - 10 day 7 - 10 day 8 - 10 day 9 - 10 day 10 - 10
time to work it That was harder than I thought it would be. I did finally get the 10 papers. I also procrastinated by cleaning a greasy pan (win) put away some - crayons/pens/pencils, tape, other odds/ends
That 10 went a bit easier, expired ads. another 10 expired ads 370 left to go

day 6 - 10
day 7 - 10
day 8 - 10
day 9 - 10
day 10 - 10
Down another 10 papers mostly my daughter's papers that I asked her about and a couple of books. I can tell that the 60 papers so far have made a visual difference on the desk. Still lots to clear -- onward I go.
This ten was restaurant menues, a bank insert flyer, a blank paper and other stuff. I also dusted the space cleared to the right of the mouse.
next 10 - reciepts, candy wrappers, cub scout papers blank pages, credit card offer, notes for my sister's funeral which threw me for a moment, she died about 3 years ago. blank papers
300 left to go
