This year, Jill & I have resolved to de-clutter our lives, one week (and one bag) at a time. You can do the same!
Every week, we try and tackle something else, with it leaving the house through donations to Goodwill, women & children shelters or the trash …
Week 9: Random stuff this week – Jill boxed up all of her breastmilk storage bottles, extra bags & other supplies for a pregnant friend.
I cleaned out our “junk drawer” in the kitchen, as it couldn’t be closed anymore, and threw out a bunch of old papers/pens/miscellanous odds & ends (pictures below).
I also did the bi-annual cleanse of old financial documents from our filing cabinet in the basement office, resulting in two large piles: one to recycle and one to shred.
I usually don’t keep anything past 1 year (bank statements, utilities, etc.) as they’re all available online, if needed.
Next week, any suggestions?
