With Spring finally here, we are in the midst of a Kitchen renovation. While packing up the cupboards I was quite surprised to see just what an abundance of plastic ware I really have! I decided it was as good a time as any to get rid of as much as I could. Not as easy as it sounds.............what do you keep & how much do you keep? I pondered this for a day & decided to make a keep pile & a throw away pile & after seeing the size of my keep pile (bigger then my throw away) I knew I had to come up with a better way to get rid of some. So I thought well if I haven't used it in a year it goes. In the end I threw out (Goodwill) 2 big garbage bags full! Plus some with out lids went into the recycle bucket! It is rather like purging & quite freeing too. I know that we are just barely starting this project & it will be trying at times but I think I have made a very good start. As long as I didn't pack away anything that we will actually need in the month & a half I think I will be ok. but check back in a couple weeks with a progress report & we'll see how well I am holding up? LOL Any tips would be appreciated. ~hugs & *** ~
