About a month ago, I posted about being overrun with kids' toys and feeling
like I couldn't get rid of much.

Well, this weekend, I went through all the toys and got rid of three
kitchen-sized trash bags full of stuff. You all would have been proud of me,
I'm sure. It was *very* cathartic! We still have too many toys, but it is
much better than it was and I didn't really even get rid of many things that
the kids still play with. I'm going to ask the kids to each choose two toys
they really like to give away in addition to what I've gotten rid of already
before Christmas.

I did that in DD's (12yo) room and closet this weekend and got rid
of a bunch of old toys she and DS (16yo) have outgrown and not
played with for years, as well as outgrown clothes. Next up is
DS's room, although he said he's going to do it before I can since
he doesn't trust me. ;-)
