I got this idea from my friend Lauren's blog... :) I'm really excited for this!
The Spring Fling Challenge is to "fling" 100 things by the first day of Spring, March 21st. And by"fling" they mean that you will get rid of in any way - paperbackswap, ebay, craigslist, Salvation Army, trash, recyling - just something that gets it out of your home and out of your car. It has to be GONE not just out of the home and waiting to be taken away. Then as a Bonus Challenge, try not to replace the things that you've flung.
The idea is to clean out all the scary places where you cram the junk that life brings your way....
Here are a few places I'm going to start....
- Fridge - Seriously, its so scary right now that I don't even like to open it!
- Under the bed - The dogs and cats play and hide stuff under there... SUPER SCARY!
- Closets - I know there is some stuff that I can get rid of in there. Ours and Amir's.
- Dressers - My dresser and Amir's... There are somethings in Amir's dresser that are too small that just need to be boxed up and put away (in case the next one is a boy) and in our dresser there is stuff that we don't wear, ever. Its time to make some room!
- Closet in the hallway - There are drawers packed full of stuff. That can be sifted through and organized at the very least.
- Under Amir's bed - The cats also hide under there. >.<
- Downstairs kitchen - I know there's lots of stuff we can get rid of down there. Its currently just storage.
- Garage - This isn't MY goal exactly.. More like my goal for Rich. :) It needs to be organized and I know he has some big plans for it that he needs to get done asap!
- Junk drawer in the kitchen - There's so much stuff shoved in there its ridiculous.
- Other utensil drawers in the kitchen - There's a lot of things that haven't been put away properly that can be organized.
- Cupboards - Organize, organize, organize!
That is my start. I'm sure that there is more that I haven't thought of yet. But I will once I get to doing all this!
