Oh how the stars have aligned today perfectly for me to have
anything something cohesive to blog.
January 1, 2008: I write new year’s resolutions to increase sightings of
Snazzy Holly. 1 week ago: I arranged for a pick up of
my crap used items by the Salvation Army. Yesterday: I watched Oprah. Today: the pick up is happening. Today: is the inaugural Fight the Frump with Fussy. See how the plan has come together?
Surely you didn’t miss Oprah yesterday with Peter Walsh, but if you are not squarely in her ideal demographic like I am here is the bottom line: The same things that make your house fat and messy make you fat and messy.
So, this morning
instead of feeding my children I rushed through my closet for 10 minutes grabbing out the fat to add to my Salvation Army pick up pile.
This was just a spur of the moment sort. I only grabbed things that I hadn’t worn in over a year or disliked. I just grabbed and stuffed into bags. No deep decisions, no mulling over each item, no givers remorse. I just grabbed and stuffed.
So, two large garbage bags later my closet is at least 20 pounds lighter. Not bad for a 10 minute diet.

Doesn’t it feel good to get rid of stuff that is doing nothing but take up your energy?
We sent off a few boxes at the end of January, and its a huge relief.
