I realized that I’ve essentially put my house on a diet. It has lost some weight (bags and bags of stuff donated) and I’m making sure that no junk gets put inside the house. If I keep up the house diet, my house should be mean and lean in no time!
These are the things I’ve purged from my house over the past week.

4 big bags of stuff to the Salvation Army. Buh-bye.

How did I end up with all these extra flower pots? These will be going to the Somerville Garden Club yard sale.
I also gave away these small appliances to friends:
Toaster oven
Waffle maker
Dust buster
Crock pot







I’ve just started doing this and it’s so amazing how much crap I really have. I just basically gave 40 books I bought at the thrift store back to them unread. See ya $40!! I hope you don’t mind if I use the term house diet, it’s so appropriate.
