Hand ringing and pacing over. Decisions made I'm IN! Apparently the kids want in to and don't want me to be "behind". Day 5- 2 boxes and 3 bags. The charity corner is empty. YEA!

I am inspired when I read here. I ousted a 4x4x2 box of an aunts I haven't seen in 15yrs yall i gotta tell ya how this went down- glims of how my brain works-ROLF funny Opened box full of used, rinsed PAPER dixi cups. Friend and I stood still starring for good 5 min. Me: maybe she wanted to reuse them. Friend: like soak them in hot soapy water first? Me:no silly you can't soak paper, they fall apart! maybe they were for crafts. Friend: well I drink out of paper cups I don't play with them. Me: well, I could coat the inside with hot wax! Friend: Oook..... and YOU can drink out of it! Me: eww-no -gross I can't believe I even seriously thought of that, seriously. We laughed so hard. sometimes my brain sees what could be until I actualize what is.

puppybox since I can not physically work in my classroom for 40 days I will spend 33 days decluttering the square footage and 7 days getting all my unit files moved into to google drive. Trying to get organized. My Digital Clutter is worse then my physical clutter at this point. Good starting point is moving those unit files and setting them up.

My '40 bag' task for today was scraping the window tint from another window. This one was 22 inches by just over 5 feet tall. I used a single edged razor blade. I doubt I would have done that this evening if not for this challenge. I'm a day ahead, so this completes the first 1/5 of the challenge. 8 down, 32 to go.
