You guys are doing so well at this. I couldn't even remotely keep up with one month of counting. Paraphrasing Dirty Harry - a woman's got to know her limitations.

BetsyMarie I find the counting motivating. You have other kinds of organizing and such going on. You do you! 927 + 29 papers 2 plastic bags 1 tray of ice cubes that doesn't need to be in freezer in winter = 959

BetsyMarie I find the counting motivating. You have other kinds of organizing and such going on. You do you! I totally agree. I wasn't criticizing, I just couldn't do it. There is however a real definition in keeping track of 'stuff' gone. I used to derive a great sense of accomplishment in keeping track of the general volume of 'stuff' gone in trash can units. Now, anything that leaves the property, at any time, in any form, is good. Whatever works.
