Day One 2012

This blog is my accountability piece. I will, this year, be simplifying my life by decluttering. Desks, closets, cabinets, book shelves, countertops - no space is safe. Each day of this year, I will throw out, give away, sell, donate, recycle at least one thing from my home. This blog is my documentation. Many days, the effort will be small. My life is on overloaded right now. But hopefully there will be many days where the effort is significant. And in the end, my living environment will be changed for the better. Not too sure what I will write about, but I will keep track of the progress here. And because today, New Year's Day, I am exhausted from a New Year's Eve trip to the emergency room, I will simply record what I am parting with. I have just got to get some sleep.

Day one: recycled 10 (count 'em) telephone/yellow pages books. Can't believe I still had that many - and embarrassingly, there are still more for another day. That is just all I could carry in one trip. Off to a good start!
