Decluttering the Stuff for a Decluttered Life in Retirement

Decluttering The Stuff Challenge

Published on

, ,

We are ready for a new decluttering challenge!

How about 100 items?ย  We should probably set a deadline – how does May 1st sound?ย  That would be 9 days with an average of 11 items per day.ย  I know some of you will do all 100 in one decluttering event and that’s ok.ย  I’m just feeling the need for some accountability on getting rid of some stuff!

Who’s ready to join me in a quick “GET THE STUFF GONE” challenge?ย  Remember that even 1 items is one less item cluttering the place!

    YES! I’ve just tackled the reams of paper in my house, do I get to count each paper as 1? Haha! https://getupandslow.wordpress.com/2018/10/07/declutter-paper/

      haha maybe! It depends on what it is whether we count a piece of paper as 1 or a stack as one. You get to make your own rules here!!

    I know what you mean. Sometimes just one item gone makes a HUGE difference!

    I’d be up for joining this challenge. I’m working on my goal of 1000 items for this year, so this might help me catch up on that goal… I best get off the internet and start decluttering!!

      truth! I’ll be impressed with 10 items from you with a new baby in the house! 100 will make you the “new mom decluttering rock star!”

        Well I got 7 things out the door today… though I feel a little like it’s cheating because I’d been meaning to donate all the extra dog leashes and collars to the SPCA for a while, I just did the dropping off today…
