Because I have a wonderful oldest daughter I have tags to share.  There are 40 tags that you can print out.  The front it labled with the number.  On the back I am going to write the bag's destination (Goodwill, Trash, Give-away) Some paper, a hole punch and some string and good to go.

Some things are just hard to let go of. The skirt, six sizes too small or the incredibly ugly vase that doesn't go with anything or the four boxes of art projects your child has given you. For some reason you invest emotion and memory into the things and that makes them very hard to let go of.

 If you are interested in checking out where I plan to work on in my home here is my list.

If you are going to get rid of 40 bags in 40 days one of your first questions is bound to be, "Where can I get rid of these bags?"

Never fear - there are many, many options out there.

It isn't often that I find a computer program for educational use that I feel is really worth the money.  Since Timez Attack is free (not  just a time limited demo, but they actually have a free version) the bar was pretty low.  But it is so fun and worth while that this is one of the very few programs that I am actually spending money on for the kids.   In fact I love it so much I signed up for the affiliate program because I know I am going to be recommending it over and over.

 It is almost time for another 40 trash-bag challenge.

 One thing I find somewhat difficult is just tossing out stuff. It doesn't matter that it is a broken can opener, a pair of boy's jeans with holes in both knees and a broken zipper, a sandal without a match or a plastic lid without a container - somehow I think that this junk must be useful at some point to someone. This is totally illogical but I feel if I toss out basically anything, no matter how useless, then I am doing something wrong.

It is just over a week until Lent begins.  I have reopened the 40 trash bag challenge Facebook page.
