Rurik Harrgath Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 Day 6: A couple of old ratty comics and four magazines. Day 7: Seven magazines into recycling. I used to have a weekly/monthly magazine addiction... no wonder I had money problems. As of Tuesday I begin the serious Daily Mission of unpacking, so there'll be a lot more "stuff" to donate and destroy rather than the current stack of magazines I'm working at. 2 Quote [Level ??] Rurik, the Thunderer Class: Stormborn War-Shaman (Path of Giants Barbarian/Conquest Paladin/Elemental Domain Cleric) BRUTALITY 11 | FINESSE 10 | VIGOR 11 | INSIGHT 14 | WILL 13 Equipment: Studded leather armor, war club, plus adventurer's pack containing rations, rope, and nature-based potions.

darkfoxx Posted September 20, 2015 Report Share Posted September 20, 2015 @Shadri: Yes! My husband and I are both no-poo-ers, and we just use water and fingertips/nails to break up any oils that accumulate. I have thin, fine hair and this works great for me - I occasionally use a little dry shampoo (Batiste is my favorite brand) if my hair looks a bit lank (occasionally like maybe once a month?) And my DH has thick, curly hair and uses daily pomade to control his mop. He also only uses fingers and water. This works for daily use; he runs a crapton; and I do mud runs. Mud runs kind of kill the natural balance going on in my head for a week or two (I'll feel kind of off and usually end up spraying in a leave-in moisturizer to re-balance things), but that lasts at most a week.The first month totally sucked and felt gross, but then my hair/scalp balanced and things are fine.

I thought cleaning out my filing cabinet would be a good idea and found out I've already done it, and cannot remember when. I even went through my bedroom tonight and couldn't find anything to declutter.That's awesome! If you reach a point where you literally have nothing you don't need, then I think you "win" even if it's before day 30. Does it count that I turned a bunch of balls of yarn into sweaters? Sure, why not?! Subtract "2" sweaters from the number of balls of yarn you started with, and count the rest toward your total. I'm running a little behind... still need to get rid of 5 more things today. Continuing to clear out my closet, so I have no doubt I will get there. 2 Quote Current Challenge | Daily Log Link to comment

naarasleijona Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 why? Why? WHY? do I have a gazillion squares of fabric whose sole purpose is to collect snotty mucus from a nose? I'll tell you why... my grandmother, (sweet lady), was a child of the 1920s. She grew up with the habit of handkerchiefs. When she passed away I was still in my retro phase, and some of the patterns were pretty cool (actually pretty funky considering my grandmother's very classic taste), so I took them ALL home. Today I pulled 3 from the pile that I like, and will keep in my drawer. I thought about incorporating them into cute little pillow covers, but then starting to think how gross that would be... "I love resting my head on a piece of fabric that was covered in slime and has probably collected billions and billions of germs!" Maybe not..... The gazillion rest of them are going to go.... starting with 7 today. I also brought a silverware caddy to school to replace the ugly one here. I don't need it, but it's a nice bamboo one. That still counts right? I got it out of my house, but I still get to put it to good use somewhere else? So that brings today's total to 8. 1 Quote Link to comment

ShadowLion Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 I got my 30's for the weekend. Will do today's late tonight when I get home. It's getting a bit harder, as I have gotten almost everything that isn't an essential out of the bathrooms and hall closet. I'm down to two small baskets of usable makeup, hair thingies, and specialty soaps. I may keep those on the counter (with a deadline of next weekend) and do some testing of the last questionable items. Anything I don't really love goes. Next, it is on to the bedroom closet! It is amazing to me how many unused, unusable, or unneeded items were hanging around in the bathrooms and closet! Given the commonly quoted statistic that most of us only wear about 20% of the clothing we own, the clothes closet should be interesting. I did purge it fairly heavily about 6 months ago. Don't know if this is where I will start to feel the pinch of decluttering or not. Eh, there's probably plenty to keep me busy for a couple of days, at least. 210/900 Great work everyone! We've collectively rid ourselves of well over 576 items of useless stuff! 2 Quote All men dream, but not equally.

Do what you can until you reach a level you feel good about. We're all at different stages of life and accumulation, and we all have different needs from the game. Use it to reach yours and stop. You can then cheer the rest of your teammates on as they go for theirs. The finish line is very individual. This is a game we can all win! 2 Quote All men dream, but not equally.
