Closet Tackle

This week I went through the three boys one closet. It was a very scary occasion! I tossed and tossed and tossed. Donated and have about 40 more items to go to the consignment store. They are getting too old for toys anyhow. I kept their little cars. Now they were here for the sorting out part. They did not finish their bin fast enough so they didn't get to go through the rest it just WENT. I just LOVE getting rid of things. Five 55 gallon trash bags OUTTA HERE! Am I nuts or am I the only one who really gets a massive sense of accomplishment tossing stuff???

    Me too! I love getting rid of things! This just reminded me I need to sort out my daughters closet! There's too much in there that doesn't get used anymore. I am planning to donate them this Christmas too! Thanks for the reminder. Awesome tackle! My tackle is up here. Happy Tuesday!

    Ah yes. Purging toys is a continual thing in our house. Out with the old in with the new. A vicious cycle really.
    Great tackle.
    Blessings.

    We actually do this a few times a year...before birthday's, Christmas, etc. We pass them onto to other kiddies through Freecyle!! It's a great thing to clean out and pass on!!

    Oh, no...I'm with you. The more bags I pack out of the house the better. I keep telling everyone that if I get rid of everything the house will never get messy. I'm working on it!

    Oh I love tossing stuff. I took off work Friday to clean house for my babies party. I tossed way more than that and it felt great.
