Apr. 3rd, 2008 03:21 pm[Error: unknown template qotd]Thou shalt not be a pack rat. I learned this lesson after four moves in four years.
"Spring cleaning" includes:
1. Going through the closet and getting rid of things I don't wear. (Goodwill, freecycle or a yard sale is a good way to make these go away.)
2. Weeding the bookcases of paperbacks I'm not ever going to read again.
3. Shredding bills or other records that I no longer need to hold onto: Click here for a handy link on how long you should keep things.
4. Filing current and recent paid bills, tax return paperwork in the Bill Box.
5. Checking contents of medicine cabinet for expiration dates and properly disposing of things as needed.
6. Ditto kitchen cabinets and the depths of the freezer.
