40 Bags in 40 Days

I admit, when Mindy posted the link to Sarah's 40 bags in 40 days challenge I thought, "There's no way I have 40 bags of stuff to get rid of."

Now I think I was wrong.

Today I went through my kids baby/toddler clothes.  I was able to come up with one whole bag of GARBAGE- stained onesies, ripped jeans, etc, one whole bag to donate, and one giant box to be handed down. 

And it all came out of three Rubbermaid bins tucked in the corner of my garage.  Now every time I look a different direction in my house I'm seeing things that we either aren't using or don't really like, or are practically garabage (like my sons dried up markers).

I'm feeling SO motivated to keep cleaning now!   Happy Spring cleaning and decluttering, everyone!

Woohoo! I haven't actually done the challenge... I might have to do 40 bags another time, but your experience with it is inspiring!

This is definitely the time of year to do that and we'll be doing that as well, spring cleaning, can't beat it!
