I've seen several web sites/posts/blogs lately encouraging people to set a specific goal for getting rid of unused, unwanted, or un-needed items in your home. A few of them include:
Throw Out 50 Things
A Thing A Day (ATAD)
(scroll down for comments - the formatting on the site is wacky)
I really like this idea, although it doesn't jive with the way I tend to do things. I declutter in big spurts (I buy in big spurts, too). But I like the idea of systemically deciding to get rid of a set number of things, identifying those things, and following through.
I'm toying with the idea of a "30 things in 30 days" challenge but will have to see what September looks like to see if I'll have the time to do it. I am getting a jump-start, though - there are two big bags to go to Goodwill and several other things earmarked for my Mom when she visits next week. I'm looking forward to having those things out of my house!
