Day 10/100

Just one more thing gone. I went through the backyard and picked up all the old, broken plant markers and plastic pots I've been saving just in case I decide to start seedlings (ha!) and tossed them.

So the count is 13 things gone in 10 days. I need to step up my game, otherwise, I see myself getting behind soon.

But the bad thing is, I went to two estate sales today. I figured it was the second (or third) day of the sale so there shouldn't be anything left, right? Nope, I still managed to spend $8 and bring home 4 books (one will be gifted), a few new scarves (which will also be gifted), and several knickknacks. I think I need to bring back the one-in-one out policy....

Day 5/100

I'm starting out strong on my destashing.

1 skort. I loaned it to a friend and she liked it so much, I gave it to her.
1 meat tenderizer. I think I used it twice, but had trouble giving it away because it costs so much. It was easier giving it to a friend.
5 magazines. These went to the donation box at work. The magazines are taken to a local hospital. The magazines had been sitting around for a few months and I needed this challenge to finally get them out of the house.
5 baggies of fiber/ribbon. These are part of my craft destash sale. There were probably over 100 pieces of yarn and ribbon in those baggies, but I think counting them individually would be cheating.

12 things gone in 5 days. Woo hoo! I'm ahead of the count!
