I took an "online break" for a little while to focus on the kids and my home. I am also in my 33rd week of pregnancy and I have been doing some major nesting. I did a spin off of "40 bags in 40 days" from Faith and Family live. You know what I figured out? I have accumulated so much stuff over the past 11 years of parenting that it is sinful. There is nothing like having company over to press you into cleaning and de-cluttering. I used the month before my baby shower in November to purge. So here are my totals so far:
15 boxes to Catholic Charities
4 boxes to family
3 boxes to my daughter's therapy center
