Clutter Challenge

I am not an Oprah viewer, but I read online about the 10 week Clutter Challenge that is currently taking place over on Oprah.com and it made me pause and think about how much clutter I have in my life. I am the daughter of a woman who still has our Barbies and a whole bunch of vintage Star Wars figures, so it's natural that my 15 and 12 year old sons still have a "play room" that is filled to the gills with legos, Thomas the Tank engine toys, and an entire platoon of Batmen and Supermen.

This being the summer, it's the perfect time for me to boost my productivity by closely examining some of the "stuff" that is taking up space in both my house and my brain. Here are some helpful resources for Clutter Busting:

OK - so get rid of all the old McDonald's toys...you should keep the legos, Thomas, Batman & Superman stuff - going thru it sounds like a good job for Adam. You will have grandchildren some day! Sorry I Can't help being a saver...Love MOM

Hi Lisa! Thanks so much for linking to me! If you enjoy toys and games as much as my husband and I do, it's really challenging to part with them.

Check out photos of how I got my husband's 37 years worth of old toys including over 200 lego sets and old Ataris and commodores etc. http://www.neatliving.org/gallery/gamehobbyoffices.html

You've inspired me to post about how we organize our games too! Stay tuned!
