I'm on Day 5 of the Feng Shui challenge! (As a recap, Marci Shimoff issued a feng shui challenge for decluttering both your head and your house. I'm getting rid of 27 things a day for nine days. "Getting rid of" can mean giving away, donating, recycling or trashing. It just has to leave my house/office/car/handbag.) I've gotten rid of all kinds of things!
- shirts that were stained or otherwise unwearable
- shoes that should have been retired long ago
- old boxes of expired food products
- broken office equipment (why did I ever keep that in the first place?!)
- old magazines
- fliers, junk mail, booklets, etc.
My house is starting to look a lot tidier! Of course, in the process of going through piles to find things to get rid of, I'm putting away a lot of items as well. Books are actually on the book shelf. Crafting supplies are in the craft room. Office supplies are organized and can actually be located at will. It is said that the outer world echoes the inner world. If this is true, then my inner world is running a whole lot more smoothly these days!Labels: day 5, declutter, feng shui, Lezli Goodwin, Marci Shimoff, organize, update
