100 Thing Challenge

Every time I got back from location I would look at the stuff in my house and wonder why I thought I needed it all. I've been paring things down a bit at a time (donations and a yard sale) but now it's serious - we've decided to do the 100 Thing Challenge.

I'm reading the book and it's been an eye-opener for me. There's more to it than just getting rid of stuff and parts of it strike really close to home. Once the husband reads the book, we'll sit down and write out our rules. I don't know if we'll stick to 100 or some other number, but I already think we'll be dividing it up into his, hers, and ours.

He'll get his library, I'll get my jewelry, we'll clean out the kitchen cabinets... It should be fun. I'm debating starting another blog to track the donations. I have to track them for the IRS, might as well show the world how much stuff 2 people can accumulate...
