40 Bags in 40 Days Year 2!

Welcome back to the season of decluttering and paring down!  Here at Cowtown Minimalist, we pay homage to whitehouseblackshutters.com's 40 Bags in 40 Days decrapifying challenge.  It starts in alignment with the Christian lenten season, but by all means, I am open to anyone's faith or lack thereof to embrace this challenge.  The universe cares not where your faith lies, nor do I.  We want you to be at peace and organized.  

There is no need to feel burdened or pressured, worried about getting an ACTUAL bag done each day.  For me, I started slow, with a drawer.  The one in the bathroom.  With 10 lipsticks I don't wear and a few little lotion bottles I lifted from our Ritz-Carlton stay.   I pulled everything out, wiped down the inside, tossed the dried up or junky stuff, and proudly looked at my organized clean drawer.   Tomorrow, I will find another. 

The great thing abut 40 bags in 40 days is you CAN start small. By Easter, you may be hiring a dump truck to come and haul off your garage.  I will applaud you either way.  It is all a journey.  The website above even has a little chart you can download and write down each day's decluttering.  Maybe give yourself a gold star?  

Good luck, and I will be checking in with you along the way.  I have been incorporating a new philosophy described as "Reset to Zero" which I will chat more about soon.  Happy DeCrapifying!
