I couldn't do a book purge either. I have books from when i was a child that i just unpacked from a box and put on my bookshelf. I don't ever plan on reading them, or having children, but the thought of giving them up makes me sad. When I was younger I had a collection of 120+ Babysitters Club books (yeah, ok dorky but i was addicted to them) and I had to give them all up when we moved, i was soooo sad.

But on the plus side, i took my little writing desk and moved it into my room and put all my telecourse stuff in it, and banished everything else to another location. NO MORE EXCUSES not to do my school work. It's been sitting for almost a year. and i only have one more year to do it all. I need someone to kick me in the *** i think. *L* But I have a nice new decluttered area to work on, if i ever get around to it.

umm... I did keep my copy of the Little Prince... and I have a dog eared copy of The Dogs of War that I bought at a rummage sale about a year ago and still haven't read. I also have an old copy of the Tropic of Capricorn :lol:

lizziness, good luck on finishing your course. A designated area sounds like it will help.
Mauvais, lol sounds like me with my Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys. ( always been a mystery nut i guess)

not doing a thing on my to do list today. it is cold and chilly so i am going to lay in bed and read all day. back to business tomorrow. :)

ellis 03-06-2004 12:53 PM

Oh... Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys... my own true loves. :D

Yesterday I finished up the laundry -sheets, towels, etc. :rolleyes: and today I am working on the storage closet. :)

blugirrl1 03-08-2004 08:10 AM

I did fix the toilet seat. and then went to walmart to buy more junk. my house was to clean. lol. ( really i needed new printer.)

Noodles913 03-10-2004 04:22 AM

Well, we finally got the attic access done and built and stuff moved up there!! AND we got the garage door done too! AND I thoroughly cleaned and organized the master bathroom!! Pitched alot of old face stuff, make-up, etc. I took pics of the attic work but I am dead tired :tired:, so I will post them soon for ya so you can see all of Noodles junk-in-the-attic now.

mauvaisroux 03-10-2004 07:30 AM

Got the storage closet done over the weekend but now my dining room table is loaded with the excess :rolleyes: which I will try to get put away/tossed out over the next few days.

blugirrl1 03-10-2004 07:41 AM

cleaned out last years old junk bills. got rid of old printer and scanner that didn't work. but sat on my desk for oh six months or so. lol caught laundry all up.
congrat noodles and Mauvais. :)

blugirrl1 03-14-2004 10:18 AM

where are all the cleansweepers? lol don't tell me everyone has so organized everything they are done? lol
I got rid of some junk bikes out of the storage room. and finished my sewing project. ( only to start a new one) got most of my paperwork filled out and ready to mail. and purged my daughter's clothes.

mauvaisroux 03-14-2004 10:35 AM

I'm still here working away :lol:

Today I am putting some stuff away that doesn't have a home and which is currently all over my dining room table :rolleyes:

Then it is on to the bathroom where I intend to declutter the medicine cabinet and cupboards :D

mauvaisroux 03-14-2004 10:39 PM

Well I got distracted by cleaning the kitchen and dusting and tidying up the bedroom so I never got the dining room table done ...I think I am looking for excuses NOT to do it:rolleyes:

I did manage to get my two small make up boxes cleaned out ( since I could no longer get the lids on) and sorted, I don't wear much make up but I sure like to hoard lipstick and nail polish - I had about 22 lipsticks and 12 nail polish. I managed to get it down to 6 lipsticks, two lip liners and 6 nail polish that match the lipsticks - whew! and parting was such sweet sorrow....:lol:

blugirrl1 03-15-2004 07:40 AM

Mauvais , lol i can so relate. i don't really wear makeup but lipstick, i have some that dates back to before my daugher ( and she is 3, maybe i better toss? )

Noodles913 03-17-2004 12:20 PM

Well, we've now finally finished the garage and even got the car in with room to walk around it and then some!! Yay!! Then we started the "moving the beast" (Giant TV Center) project in the living room last week, and I am going to work on finishing that up today. I took lots of before pics, but I want to get it all perfect and take after pics so you can see the comparison. The living room looks huge now! I have been weeding through things as I go along and managed to purge a buncha knick knacks, CDs, videos, and next is the books! OUT!!! to the swap-meet or EbaY they go!! Yay!! Less junk more funk! hahaha
