It’s Day #7 of the 500 Things Decluttering Challenge and today we were supposed to clean out the garage and basement. We don’t have a basement, but I can assure you I was not excited about cleaning out the garage — especially since it is currently freezing in Tennessee!!
But I braved the icy cold garage and went out there and did it… not crazy thoroughly, but I did a quick sweep of it and found some items to get rid of — including a few Kid’s Meal toys and paint that was all dried up. And some trash. Of course.
I was pleasantly surprised that the garage was not as cluttered as I’d pictured… and most of the clutter was stuff in the donate pile that I’ve collected by doing this challenge!
Today’s total: 32 items decluttered
Total for the entire challenge: 283 items so far!
I’m keeping a running total of all my items decluttered during this challenge as I thought it would be fun to not only do Daily Totals but also Overall Totals.
How many items did YOU declutter today?? Leave a comment and let us know.

It was 15 degrees in Ohio today, so spending time in the garage was not an option. I did a quick grab of 6 things out there and then went inside to where it was warm and decluttered my purse. 🙂 The garage will have to wait until Spring! I’m up to 305 items total so far.

It was 27 degrees here… and that was freezing enough! So you get a pass!

That’s great that you’ve reached 305 items. I totally don’t blame you for not doing the garage!
