I do better if I have a set number, a limit, something concrete to aim for.
I decided to do the Reverse 100 thing challenge, and added an extra bit along the way. Complete the challenge before the new year. I started this on the 27th December.
And I have!! I just counted them, and the grand total, including things that I had already decided to get rid of, is.....
140!!!!
Woah. I was thinking to myself, never will I get to 100 this evening. I even overshot my target!
I've been hampered by my lack of photo taking opportunities (being at work full time and arriving home in the dark). So I've got a badly-lit-flash-gone-off-messy-photo of all the items. It will have to do! :)
This feels great. I am ready to take on a New Year, to continue to question my belongings, and be free of all this stuff that I see everywhere I go. I will probably do this again in early 2013! My ultimate dream is to reduce my personal belongings to a total of 200. Never again do I want to make 7 car trips just for my stuff when I move house.
I'm excited for what the New Year will bring. I have a long project list to keep me busy, and will look forward to making some regular blogging time!
In the mean time, I wish you all the very best for 2013, and I also want to thank my readers for the support and comments these past few months.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
