We are at day 2 of my 7 day thing, and today is a pretty easy one.
Earlier this year, I got quite a few used interior magazines for free (which is great, since I have stopped buying my own). I’ve enjoyed reading them, but I’m all done, and I’m ready for them to leave the house.
I piled them all into one of those banana crates/boxes – and looking at the half filled box, I decided I was going to fill it up! (a girl gotta challenge herself π )
So I’ve been adding all sorts to the pile; old magazines, new magazines, manuals, catalogs, travel brochures and my tiny little nemesis – articles I have ripped out of magazines/newspapers etc to keep. I have written about this habit before.
Guess what, I have filled the banana box (woohoo), and there are hardly any magazines left in the house, with the exceptions of a few keepers for a rainy day π
I still have a stack of manuals, but they all belong to items I own. So I guess they’ll be sticking around a little bit longer!
I just tallied it all up, and here are the stats:
113 magazines, manuals, travel brochures and catalogs
114 individual articles I have torn out to keep
=
227 items out-the-door!
My 7 day tallyΒ = 256
See.. I caught up, and now I’m ahead π
Oh, and my grand total for 2017 = 1273
Until tomorrow!
Ah yes, the ace up your sleeve… I see now how you planned to catch up and get ahead. π

There’s ALWAYS more, right??
Good thinking on all those magazines. A banana box full left a lot of nice empty space for you!!

Yes… there is ALWAYS more π I thought it was a fun challenge for myself to FILL the box.. that pushed me just a little more than I otherwise would have.. with the result, 45% more magazines went out the door!
