I am not Catholic, however this challenge intrigued me. AND interested me!
I've been trying to get some decluttering done but life keeps taking over.
Years ago I used to follow The FlyLady and her "27 Fling Boogies" helped me to declutter (everyday you try to get rid of 27 things - either in the garbage or donated to charity).
The 40 days challenge is a Lent thing --
and Lent is from Ash Wednesday
until Easter Sunday.
All of which are over for this year.
So, I will try this starting next week -
Monday, April 12 and go for 40 days (for me, May 21).
Wanna join me?
How it works:
1. Pick what size of trash bag you want to use. (I will use the tall kitchen bags.)
2. Each week for eight weeks, fill one bag (or equivalent). It can be a bag of stuff, toys, clothes, papers - anything, a box of books, an old TV. Anything that you can count as clutter is fair game.
3. Update on your blog how it goes.
4 Have fun!
