THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Almost all of our unhappiness is the result of comparing ourselves to others.

THROWOUT FOR THE DAY: This first one is by default. I left my bag of odds and ends tupperware lids and containers, and butter containers, etc. out on my front stoop, hoping to sort and match them up - Jennilyn came to visit and brought munch-mouth doggie, who had an absolute ball shredding what was out there. So that was an easy throwaway!


Due to popular demand, I've opened the sacred Engsign cupboard out in my garage, exposing the holy magazines - they are (sob) to be thrown out (gasp) today. This one is definitely a hard one to do - I've been saving these puppies for 36 years. But I've gotten a lot of moral support from you kids, and I'm feeling brave today...sooo YOU'RE OUT!!!!!

Can I borrow Munch Mouth Dog for my tupperware cupboard? I'm very much hoping to do some major dejunking today so I will be posting later today. Leep your eyes open for clear plastic bedding bags and tupperware. =)

Hey! Ice Cream stole my idea! *I* was going to borrow old Munchers to come shred some of MY junk, LOL!

Hey, kudos to you for tossing the Ensigns! That purge must have felt soooooo good!

I've thought about purging some of my old lidless ziploc containers too. I think I'll do that today. I think I have a stray cat out there somewhere that would love to shred them. Here, kitty, kitty!

Oops... that was MY dog!! But you did say you were wanting to throw those out... But hey, if you want Chaco to come destroy things to help you purge you can have her anytime!

I know this is terrible to ask, but are they already gone? I heard about going through them and saving the good photos of art, especially pictures of Christ and putting the pages in sheet protectors to make quiet books for Sacrament Meeting.

I live in CA and would be willing to pay for the photos if they are still available.
