O.K. I’m flaking out on you. Again. I’m barely functioning over here, so deal with it. 😉
We host youth groups all summer, spend a week in Oklahoma at Camp Zenith, entertain/hang out with our interns, do our regular outreach and Saturday night meals. All of that on top of wearing my wife, mom, writer, reader, Words with Friends challenger hats. I spell “busy” with lots of exclamation marks after it. So a monthly challenge was a little beyond my abilities.
Never fear! I did what Flylady calls the “27 Fling Boogie” on a regular basis. I also donated several boxes of clothes, trinkets, dishes, a desk, 3 chairs, a twin size mattress, and some other odds and ends to 3 different fundraising yard sales friends were hosting. Flylady would be proud of me.
My blogging accountability partners will call me a cheater for this post, but I have a question for them (and you)…
What did YOU de-clutter this summer?
Am I a ‘blogging accountability partner’? 😛
But if I can get away with posting a video of the sunrise as a post, this DEFINITELY qualifies as a post.
And to answer your question, I did some digital ‘re-cluttering’, remember?

I got rid of ten boxes of “treasures” to a fund raiser garage sale in August. I managed to take a bunch of stuff to another fundraiser garage sale in May. In between those dates, I put extra stuff in the trash and out on the curb for others to “shop”. Right now I’m going through sewing stuff to give to an organization that helps ladies with sewing skills in Afphganistan. Glad to help others and really glad the stuff is gone or going!

I am doing some emotional closet cleaning…does that count? I haven’t exactly decluttered it yet but I have certainly cleaned that closet. Sadly, I did not follow fly-lady 15 minute rule. This is gonna take “days” . ;-/

I got rid of three stacks of magazines, four bags of clothes, some toys my grandchildren out grew, and miscellaneous items. I still have more to go. BABYSTEPS! It sure feels good to see it gone!
