Purging before the New Year!

My grandmother used to say that however the new year caught your house, that is how it would be for the rest of the new year. Is this true? I am not sure, however, last year I had laundry that needed to be put away and this year I struggled more than ever with putting the fresh laundry away. Coincidence? (Insert Twilight Zone theme song here)

This year, we have already been through one "purge" of our belongings. It felt good to rid ourselves of all of the excess "stuff" in our home. As I sit here looking around, it looks like another purge may be in order. How can three people accumulate so many things? Where does it all come from? Does it breed in the closets and drawers during the night?

The plan is to load up the contractor sized garbage bags and haul them to Good Will or leave it for the garbage man to collect tomorrow. Of course, this depends on the contents of the bags. Our family has so much to do with a limited amount of time to accomplish the task.

Next post, the results of the big purge.

Bzzzzzzzzzzzing around the house,
The busy bee
