Simplifying by Purging

One of the inspirations for Simplifying this month was the need to purge.  Does anyone else find that you have stuff taking up space that you know you will never use?  Those things just get in the way and not only clutter your space, but clutter your mind.  I’m planning to spend at least a day each week this month to simplify my space by getting rid of things we can no longer use.  Today I hit up two hot spots–the medicine cabinet and our food.

Our oldest medicine…

And our oldest edible item…

YUCK!  At least that’s the production date and it expired 18 months later, but that’s still 2007!

Over the last couple of days, an extra microwave has found a home, a 3 year old has been blessed with large bag of unneeded toys, and a bag of food that’s been gifted to us but not enjoyed by us was given to our house helper.

Do you have things in your house that are taking up space, but you know you won’t use them?  Do they need to be thrown away, passed on to a friend, or given to charity?  Take a step to simplifying today and reclaiming a cluttered space by getting rid of something you know you won’t use.  We’d love to hear if you do!
