drivel, drivel, drivel

blah, blah, blah...
yak, yak, yak...
la, ti, da...
oh, la, la...

I am in the mood to DONATE.  That's right.  Open up the closets, chests, and cabinets.  Fill trashbags full of stuff.  Take stuff to Goodwill or any other drop-off donation site. 
I wonder...
IF my husband and children will notice that half their stuff is GONE?  Given away.  Donated.  How sweet of them to unknowingly be so kind!

I am inspired by Jill Martin's "I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR" after viewing her ambush on the TODAY Show.  Jill's advice:  "You only wear 25% of the items in your closet -- GET RID OF THE 75%".

So, I did.  And it was easy to dispose of hubby's (and children's) items.
Now, I just have to apply this concept to my own closets. 

Good Luck on lightening your loads by 75% !!

three month update

The shopping, or lack of shopping, is going quite well.  I have been too ill (still) to think about blowing some money on frivolous, not-needed, extravagant crap.  In fact, I am trying to get rid of the excess stuff in my home. 

Garage sale?
eBay?
Craigs List?
Goodwill?

How should I get rid of the stuff?  It is all good, some unused, some barely used, and most in need by someone else.  I think. 

How do you get rid of your stuff??  Accepting any and all ideas, suggestions, or thoughts.
