A Purge Party!

I found a new friend and she doesn't even know it yet! We are all invited to a Purge Party! I have lifted this from her blog - may she grant forgiveness:

Purge
–verb (used with object)


1.
to rid of whatever is impure or undesirable; cleanse; purify
  2.
to rid, clear, or free form or of.
  3.
to clear of imputed guilt.
  4.
to clear away or wipe out.



Research shows that if you announce your intention, you're more likely to stick to it.


So, here's my announcement:


Starting on Monday, March 7, 2011,
and on Mondays after that
I am hosting a



http://www.goodbyehousehellohome.blogspot.com/ 

and we are invited!  Yes, click on her cute button and GO FOR IT!  Declutter, ungarbage, de-stash, simplify, whatever name you may give it - just DO it!  I promise you will be happier :-)  There may be a needy family who can benefit from your happiness.......

You're forgiven, LOL!
I am amazed at how this idea of purging is catching on across the country-- I love the freedom I get when I am loosed from the bonds of things. I know you hold this freedom dear, too.
And I would consider it an honor to be your new friend!
My heart is touched, thank you :)
Here's to freedom, sister!

P.S. A few years ago, my daughter, Sarah (now 20 a Sophomore in college), was researching and hooked on/obsessed with the type of cottage you live in--is it a Tumbleweed home? She thought we ought to research it back then!

What fun! I'm a major purger. I go through my things on an almost monthly basis. There's not so much to get rid of now, but Im sure there's something.

I made purging a regular part of my life in 2008 and have been so much better off for it! Illness/surgeries/recovery since July of '10 have put me behind the game though and I am itching to get back into the swing of it; seeing your post and then Leslie's original post has inspired me to make Mondays my weekly purge day until things are back in order! I start next week and I'm looking forward to it. Thank you both for the inspiration!

Oh, fabulous idea!! Boy, do I need to purge!! I guess I have to take a picture of my mess though, and then post what it looks like after I've purged?? Ummmm, hmmmm, let me think about it. ;)
I don't think I want to show my mess! But seriously, I WILL join, one of these Mondays!! :)
Best,
Gloria
