Someone started an idea for 40 bags in 40 days. Meaning, every day find things to donate and fill up one bad. Well, that's not hard for me AT ALL. Nine people in this house means lots of clutter adds up really fast. Back in my single days I was so simplistic I was probably considered a minimalist. I get soooo confused when there is just too much stuff in the house. I don't like figurines or any sort of collectible. My kids are what I looove to give my time too. Not things. So maybe when they're all grown up I'll find something worth collecting. I don't know. I was like that when I was single anyway.
Our biggest inspiration when we do a house clean out is from the show Clean House. No matter how many times we've seen all the episodes from every season, we'll watch it again. I'll have the show playing somewhere on a monitor, streaming through
Netflix, so it encourages the kids and I. I'm not kidding, it works!! You can get all the seasons on Netflix. It just is so motivating to see people clear out their house. Often you'll see people come to the realization that they've attached memories to junk and it's done nothing but take up space in their house and in their mind.
Anyway, we are on our second day and working on our second bag! For us that would be a large bag but for some people maybe it's just a smaller size bag. Whatever works! Back to work we go! :D
