1000 Item Challenge Day 60

Well, so much for doing a big decluttering this weekend. I spent most of it catching up on all of the household-type stuff that gets laid by the wayside during Ironman training. My garden still is nowhere near recovering despite removing approximately a metric shit-ton of weeds on Sunday.

However, I did throw stuff in a pile as I found it and then got back to work today so I actually have quite an impressive haul:


  • Nightie (You're welcome. Seriously though - I own three and maybe get one out for the Mister once or twice a year. Like, what?)
  • Sleeveless hoodie - I'm just not a vest/sleeveless hoodie type, as much as I want to be. If it's cold enough for a warm layer, I want my arms covered.
  • Skirt - One black skirt is enough for someone who almost never wears skirts.
  • Gardening gloves (Wore out and am now using the spare pair my mother left behind)
  • 2 Medicine cups
  • Curtain
  • Checkbook register (don't use them)
  • 2 Mustache erasers. They make me smile but I have no use for them and there's no good way to store them. In fact, the deciding factor in letting them go was that I had literally forgotten I had them.
  • Pewter letter opener
  • Expired medicine
  • 2 Pants hangers (Don't use this type anymore)
  • Water faucet part (STILL finding hardware I either don't need or don't know what it is.)
Today's Total: 15 Items
Overall Total: 747 Items

1000 Item Day 57 - Back from Ironman

Hello! The past two weeks were too crazy to do more than just throw the occasional item in the "get rid of" pile. Not only was I getting ready for Ironman, I had two huge projects thrown on my plate at work,  I had to take a day trip to Boston, AND I had to spend a weekend sherpa-ing my boyfriend through a race of his own. Phew! So glad I'm going on vacation in a couple weeks - I need it! Anyway, back to the grind, at least until I leave for Seattle. This is so much a "haul from today" as catching up on stuff I piled up. This week I'm hoping to get back into the groove with decluttering and create that capsule wardrobe. Pajama shorts Running singlet Running dress Mason jar Contacts case 2 Paint stirrers 2 Pieces of paperwork Running hat 2 Screws Today's Total: 12 items Overall Total: 712 items

1000 Item Challenge Day 41

Another day scrounging around for that ten-item minimum, but got it done.: Race bib (I usually keep these but I actually won an award and already have the plaque on the wall.) Newspaper (Yes, it was cool to keep the paper from the Sox's first World Series win in over 80 years, but...I never even look at it. Maybe this makes me a bad Bostonian, but out it goes.) 3 Photos 2 Screws (Really scrounging the bottom of that formerly overflowing Junk Drawer that was stuffed with hardware.) Jewelry...bag, I guess you'd call it? Hoodie Pendant Today's Total: 10 items Overall Total: 520 items
