Clean Sweep - Week 3

Well, we definitely got back on track with our Clean Sweep this week. I don't even know how many items we purged. We actually hit several rooms, but amazingly concentrated on a single closet. Yes, a 2 foot wide, by 6 inch deep closet! Now you may think you can't find much in such a small space, but let me tell you, we filled three diaper boxes with stuff. Of course most of it is relatively small stuff, but an item is an item. We mostly purged old candles, but we also got rid of a few baby items that James no loger needs - wipes warmer, a playmat, some bottles and a bottle sanitizer. I also got rid of some clothes that, while I haven't outgrown them, were rather old and worn. The Goodwill pile has no less than 60 itmes in it from this week (we already dropped off the stuff from the previous weeks) and that doesn't count the items we simply threw away because they weren't worth donating.

Next weekend is game night and Super Bowl, so we may not get much done. I will still hold out hope for 20 items, but chances are we might get to 10.

Here's til the broom swings the other direction.
