Great!
An important skill you need to learn to keep your life from becoming cluttered is throwing away (or recycling) things that are truly garbage.
Here's a short list of things that you can get rid of this week. These things are trash and are burdens to you. Get rid of them:
- newspapers (recycle)
- chipped dinner plates (trash)
- socks with holes (I recycle them into one-time use rags)
- hand or body lotion with a scent you dislike (throw in trash if over 1 year old; otherwise, see if your co-workers want them)
- pens that don't write (trash)
- scissors that don't cut (trash)
- glue that's dried out (trash)
- expired medications (trash--you may be able to recycle the bottles. Keep pets and kids safe! Don't let them get into medications and cleaning supplies!)
- eye makeup older than 6 months (trash)
- computer manual from 2 computers ago (might be recyclable--check around)
- more than two current phone books (recycle)
- broken video or computer game controller (trash)
- scratched CD's that you tried to repair (trash)
- CD scratch remover gadget that didn't work (trash)
