Talk About Tuesday ~ My Purge Pile


Lara’s starting a brand new carnival called Talk About Tuesday where we are invited to write a post of something we want to share or talk about. Well that sounds pretty easy. What a perfect opportunity for me to share a brand new tote, basket, container, shelf but alas I’ve got nothing. I’m going through some serious withdrawal here ladies! Where or where art thou my baskets? Come to momma!

Oh sorry where was I? Right I don’t have anything new to share but how about I talk about a big ole box of old. Every week I make a trip to the local thrift store to drop off the latest victims of my purging party. This week’s box is a little bigger than most weeks and it includes a little bit of everything…toys, skates, clothes and the most hideous tablecloth ever (what’s with that?!). I leave a box or a bag set up in my study behind the door and as I find things around the house I no longer need or love I can quickly and easy just throw them into the box. Friday is usually the day the box goes out the door to the thrift store.

Anyone else been to a purging party lately? What’s in your box?
Got something to talk about? Link up over at Lara’s.

    [...] After the torture session clothes trying on session I tackled the “out pile” and sorted it into 4 smaller piles, thrift store, two consignment store piles and garbage. Consignment stores generally only take in season clothing so I split the pile into spring/summer consignment and fall/winter consignment. The spring/summer stuff goes into one tote and put by the door ready to go and the fall/winter stuff goes into another tote and put away in the closet until it’s time to take it in. The thrift store stuff goes directly to my donation station. [...]
