Let’s Fling Some Magazines!

Today is the day for me to rid myself of all unnecessary magazines!  I used to be a big magazine person.  It seemed I had to buy one every time I went to the Grocery Store.  Then I started budgeting and magazines had to go.

Before, I NEVER Threw Them Away!

Before I learned how to take care of myself, my family and my home, the magazine pile  was very very bad!

I Started ‘ORGANIZING’ Them!

You see I never threw them away.  I just started, get this organizing them!  For what?  Did I plan on having a Library of Magazines?

The only thing I know was buying a magazine when I bought groceries was a routine of mine.  Instead of putting the groceries away right away, I would sit down and read the magazine.

Always Looking For The Right Way…

I was always looking for the right ________ and the right ___________ or and maybe ___________ will work only to feel let down.

Most of the time the covers are Teasers.  You just buy them and end up being disappointed after you get it home.  So it goes into “The Pile.”

Let’s see how my “Pile of Magazines” are doing.  I went through the dates and yes they must all go!  If I don’t intervene now, how high will it get?  I am not chancing it!  I never want to ever have as many magazines as I use to have simply because I couldn’t throw them away.  I might need something out of one of them.  What a crock!

I hope you can get rid of some of your magazines.  Mine weighed about 8 pounds of clutter that is on its way out the door.  I hope everyone is practicing eliminating some of your paper clutter.  It is not too late to start!  One piece at a time!
Keep Getting Rid of Paper Clutter and Keep FLYing!

Here is my Pile I don’t care to dust today.

 

In the trash it goes!

  1. With me it was newspapers! Not daily ones, but the weekly church ones I kept "just in case"! They went back nearly a year! I didn't weigh what I put out for recycling, but DH could hardly lift the bag for the bin men tonight! What a lot of lovely space I now have!
    Newspaper cuttings for tomorrow – all the articles I carefully cut out but now no longer need!
    Thanks for the motivation/inspiration.
