For me I had a few items that I knew were going today and a few I had to hunt for. With the in-laws leaving today and having to do a good "after company" clean, I didn't have the will to empty out any closets! But that's cool for me since I moved in a few months ago and my closets have not had a chance to get out of control.
What did I find to say good bye to....?
GOOD BYE TO A STACK OF MAGAZINES, I LOVE YOU WHEN YOU ARE NEW AND SHINY BUT YOU ARE MY BIGGEST ENEMY! (Notice that the one on top is about organization?)

ReplyDeleteThis is so much fun - thanks for the inspiration Jen - I said "goodbye" to a note pad I'll never use, old purses, pants that don't fit the hubby, crosstitch patterns that won't ever be used now that I'm a scrapbooker, and other misc household stuff. It felt so good to drop the bag off at the goodwill truck :-) -Denise M.
