Cleaning out!

We are spending this Memorial Day weekend cleaning & organizing our belongings in preparation for the move. We are downsizing, so we need to get rid of a lot of stuff. Our house is already fairly organized (a product of moving so many times), but it's amazing how fast things get out of hand and how much easier it is to pack an organized house. We have been very successful so far... We have accomplished:

* Cleaning out Harrison & Truman's closets (F's was already done a few weeks ago) - resulting in lots of items for the garage sale and 2 bags of trash
* Sorting through all of the photos/scrapbook stuff... HUGE amount of stuff (photos/memorabilia from each of our births until we went digital in 2004)
* Listed mass quanitities of furniture/electronics on Craigslist & Cheapcycle
* Sold several items already - $231 worth so far!! This is better than a garage sale!

Yippee!! Three cheers for cleaning up and cleaning out!

Yea! It is always good to make a little on stuff you won't use :)

We don't clean out enough and I'm not so organized, therefore we don't move!
