5 a day for November...

[danna]

Hi there
I need to move a few more things out of my house so I am challenging myself and anyone who want to join
to get rid of 5 things a day.
Mine as of November 2 are...
---1 pair of Garden Crocks that were unsafe and damaging to my feet...garbage
---1 Bag of Silk Sunflowers and 1 Vase to a group that are using then for centre pieces at a luncheon.
---1 Bunch of Silk Daffodils to a...charity
---3 pair of underwear...That just needed to go...
---6 Tea towels to the Rag Bag.
---2 Planters that were broken
That is a total of 18 items and that is all for now....

You can read the Marie Kondo threads for more inspiration but you are doing a great job!

Welcome back, Danna - I thought this thread was going to be about eating more produce!

[danna]

LOL...Rosarugosa it does sound like I want to eat more veggies.....and I did that too yesterday and I guess I should have added it in on
November frugals.

Sandy I have read Marie Kondo and she is a little over the top for me but, I love her take on decluttering ones life.
My problem is one of being too good a shopper (couponing etc.)/yard saler/thrift shopper. Also, I live alone now and
will want to downsize at some point so better to keep things down now.

I took at least five books out of the house today and yesterday.

This is going to be fun.
1 calculator (still have two)
1 blush
1 mascara
2 lipsticks
Five!

Over the past couple of days, I put more books in the "to go" pile.

Today I recycled some old papers, two phone books and a plastic container, and brought a mug to work to donate to the general office kitchen.

On Friday and Saturday, I threw out some random papers, plastic bags from gardening soil (DH just dragged them around the side of the house but I tossed them), put more books in the book donation pile. I also took an old expired package of edemame beans and put them outside for the squirrels. They were gone this morning!!

Five more books today, plus a corresponding number of bookmarks.
