August Clean Up Challenge

We didn’t tackle one specific area, but rather all of our closets. We got one of those fliers in the mail for a donation pick up and they come tomorrow. So all the lumpy sweaters, faded polos, and slightly stained baby clothes are bagged and tagged. I threw in some of the random/cheapy toys too. Hopefully, someone else can get some use out of our stuff. Feels good! The other piles of clothes I will be selling at a consignment sale this weekend. Anything that doesn’t sell goes to needy children. Win/win. And hopefully, I’ll make some money to justify what I spend on winter clothes for the kids. I love this monthly challenge because there is something so satisfying seeing crap leave your house. I often wonder how little we can live off of. Why do I have eight pairs of pajamas? I need maybe two. Why do I own 20 bath towels? (Kid towels included) I’m sure we could get by with one for each of us. Not only would downsizing free up space, but time spent doing all that laundry! Anyways, food for thought. Let the cleaning mission continue!! What room should I tackle next?? #pleasedontsaygarage
