We needed paperwork for our insurance company. Birth Certificates, marriage certificate..... I had it all stashed in a "memory" box in the basement.
Asked the hubby to bring that box up along with a bankers box tote full of NONSENSE! I spent 3 hours going through it all. I now have 1 tote that is 3/4 full - of my girls memory stuff. The bankers box has been filled with paper to go to recycling. Whoo hoo! That feels so good.
I plan on continuing into the new year. My first action will be to clean out my oldest dd's closet. She took over our old classroom, but I never cleaned out the closet for her.

That is awesome! Congrats on organizing such a big chore!
I have this whole week off paid from work. I really needed a break from that place so I am going to use it to get the house "right" for this upcoming school semester.
Plugging away here too. My goal is to declutter the front room, entrance and dining area. So far we found about 6 VHS and 6 DVD's that will be donated to the library. I'm working on book shelves and magazines and plants next.
Major decluttering at my house
