Week 2 Update - #40bags40days



I continued on with the #40bags40days challenge last week.  I decided it was time to do something about the clutter in the upstairs bathroom.  


From the small cabinet/organizer, I managed to get 2 bags of books - one bag to donate, and one bag to sell.


From underneath the vanity, I managed to get 2 bags of garbage, a bag of papers that need to be shredded 2 bags of stuff to be listed on the Buy Nothing group and another bag of items that could e recycled.  That equals the 8 bags for this week, and it doesn't seem to even make a dent in the clutter around the house.  The bathroom isn't a room that visitors see, but at least I know that you can see underneath the vanity now (and I found some missing socks that I had bought, but never wore!)

    1. It really is - most of it is just "stuff" that we don't need, but I grow attached to things easily and "might" have a use for it down the road

  2. I really need to get at my cupboard under the sink and clean it out. Hubby keeps putting more and more in there and its time to clean it out.

  3. I feel like I'm not making a dent either, but by the time we hit 40 days I bet it will.

  4. It is such a good feeling to declutter and organize. I have been working on it as well and the results are showing. Less really is more :)
