At the beginning of February I made a list of goals to help purge our home of anything we don't want to take with us when we move. The goal is to put the house on the market April 1st. It's coming way too quickly.
However, I must say that I'm pretty proud of our progress. I have a couple of bags and two very large boxes ready to donate...and we've only gone through the living and dining room! I'm dreading this week's task...the kitchen.
These goals have taken a lot of discipline. My husband and I would both much rather do almost anything than clean out junk drawers and fill boxes with things that have collected unnecessarily over the years. However, we're seeing great reward. It's refreshing to look in a cabinet or on a shelf and see order. I love knowing things in our home have a purpose and a place instead of just wasting space. (This is also helping fuel these early nesting feelings I've been having).
What's more exciting is that I have off today thanks to winter weather that's on the way; maybe I'll get a jump on the kitchen today. If we get what they're calling for, I may have tomorrow off too...it looks like the groundhog was right.
