A Book and Old Bath Salts

#72
 Good-bye to the book that sat in a basket for a year.  



#73














Bath Salts, I enjoyed you in our deep tub, but now it is time to say adieu.  It is just easier to take a shower, and I have to keep moving you around.

Will I find 356 items I need to give away or throw away by the end of this year?  I had already gone through many items before and after we moved.
I am excited to find out, especially now that I am getting closer to 100.  And I haven't included all the trash bags of shredded receipts and things.  Hmm...maybe, I should include some of those bags.  After all, that's a heap of clutter.

Four Old Telephone books and More

 items are going.  I can't even figure out why some of it wasn't already thrown out, except that I was so overwhelmed when we moved.  One thing for sure, they all fit the rule of things that need to be thrown out or Seven items are leaving my home, and they have not been used in two years.

Drum roll...  And now I unveil #65, #66, #67, #68, #69, #70,  and #71.

Four telephone books and one instructional  booklet for a broken Urban Rebounder.
Do you save stuff like this, just in case you need it again?  It may make sense
saving a phone book from a town you recently left, but to save four is a waste of space.

Now, why was I saving the whole box for a few pieces of packing paper?

I think someone can use this notebook, but it is not going to be me.

Saying Good-bye to #63 and #64.

Today, I'm saying good-bye to two different kinds of clutter.  Number 63 is a book that needs a new home.  And the other is something that was a gift, which was sampled and tried, but it just isn't getting used.  It will sit around for years going bad, while I feel guilty because it was a gift.  Nope.  Not going to do that this time.  Goodbye Number 64.

I'm wondering if I will really find 365 things this year to remove from the clutter in my house.  I haven't counted jars and things that you would normally throw out.  I have decluttered things that sat around for a long time.

Do you think I will find 301 more things that need to be decluttered?
