I was sure I had posted to this thread the other day, but I must not have hit the send button. Oh well. I'm going to do just December. Committing to an entire year and so many items has always seemed too daunting to me. So I'll do 168 items. 1/12 of 2023 items. You did post about this in the December Challenge thread.

Yes, but I had also posted here too. Or at least written something that I didn't post. Shrug...

yesterday we did a fun decluttering... we got dressed in holiday attire and brought four blow molds (vintage outdoor decorations that light up) to a neighbor that has an outrageous display with hundred of them! He also has made some from plywood kits, and shared a couple plans with us. when I got home I sent him an invite to our open house.

Oh, you're counting down, mylittlescholar. My number would be too big for me. You look as if you'll make it. 798 + 1 pair of sandals 1 pair of sneakers 4 books in addition to those already waiting to go out 1 bag with all the books in it = 805 I need to get out 122 items per day. I have just thought of a whole category of papers I could get rid of. We'll see how much that helps.
