mission: organization (day 1)
many of you know that i've been struggling over the last year with trying to downsize. i must have hit one of those milestones in life where i feel an incredible need to take another step forward in assessing "where i am." but i'm having trouble doing so -- i feel burdened by the clutter.
this long weekend is devoted to taking a literal next step. one of the messiest rooms in my house is my bedroom -- it's worthy of a television episode of mission: organization (hgtv).
and so i begin today. i will be posting my progress throughout the weekend. my goal for today is to clear the north wall and have 3 main piles (keep, toss, give away).
pray for me....

where did it all go? 4 large bags of garbage and shredding, 3 bags of recycle, 2 small piles of give aways, 2 small piles of stuff still to be sorted on my bed
