Still working in the kitchen. Cleaned out 4 more drawers and went through tons of papers that I had been moving from one spot to the other for a few days now.
Trash/Recycle: 2 piles of papers
Sell: 1 cookbook
Donate: 0
It doesn't seem like much but not only am I getting rid of trash and things I should have gotten rid of years ago but I am finally getting things organized. Hopefully I will have more progress this weekend and finally get finished with the kitchen.

Day one
Today was actually a pretty good day. I wish I could have gotten into more but the day sped by and I had a hard time motivating myself. I worked on cleaning out some of the cupboards in the kitchen. I was hoping to get the whole kitchen done but there really was a lot of stuff.
Trashed/Recycled: 10 baby bottles/rings
5 old rubbermaid food storage containers/missing lids
1 set of misc. measuring spoons/cups (didn't have complete set to sell, cheapy from dollar store)
stack of papers
broken electric mixer
2 ratty old pot holders
Sell: 1 pair of margarita glasses
1 coffee mug
For the first day I thought it was pretty good. I wish I had more for the yard sale pile but I'm sure I'll get more, the more I dig through stuff. Even though I've only cleaned out three drawers, two cupboards and the underneath of my hutch, I feel SO much better. I really can't wait to really get to working on this!!

Inspired!
My good friend Robyn has inspired me to join her in this decluttering project. I keep saying over and over how I must get rid of things in my house and I just never do it. I was so excited when I read her post about this idea. Basically my goal is to get rid of 2011 things by the end of 2011. I think I have plenty of things around here to do just that! Things will either be sold, trashed or donated. Here are the rules.
