Day 1: 40 days, 40 bags

Today  I tackled four drawers in my kitchen: the grocery list drawer, napkin drawer, towel drawer and miscellaneous drawer. Day 1 down. Only 39 to go.

Actually, I had trouble only tackling one item on the list, but that's the beauty of the challenge for me. I can easily get overwhelmed by trying to do too much and being exhausted. This was fairly easy to accomplish and took me all of 30 minutes at the most. YEA!

I also noticed that I am most likely going to skip around on the list out of necessity. I started with these drawers randomly. Perhaps I picked them because they were easy. Or annoying. Yes, annoying is probably the true reason.


Next is the kitchen island...out of necessity. Must make room for a new (small) appliance.


Here's my list...and I'm marking them off as I go...

Here you go...the after photos. You can refer to some of the before photos from this post.



And...most of what came out of these drawers was indeed trash...so only a few items went into a bag for giveaway.

  1. You're helping me get excited about cleaning and going through all my junk! Do you think it's helpful to start with a list?
