  5. You go girl! I know there are a bunch of bloggers doing this. I do it on such a regular basis now that I dont need to dictate a certian time to do it:)
    Go figure that decrapifying our homes makes us feel more simplified in every area. But less to dust=more happiness as far as Im concerned:)

  12. This is genius, your hand clutching the trash bag looks determined and inspired (yup, got all that from a hand clutch picture...I'm very insightful). I am 37 weeks pregnant and a nesting FIEND. Nothing is safe in this house right now. I even went through the drawer in the kitchen where I keep the soup ladles. If I find I am missing a child I know where to look, the donation station at Goodwill.
