What: Wool-cashmere blend sweater.
Origin: The bitch & swap.
How long kept: About 16 months?
Why kept: Might wear it it again, and thus I Might Need It.
Destination: Housing Works
Confession: This sweater was cute, and looked good on me. (It was Perfectly Good.) But it was a bit snug around the arms. And it took forever to dry! Verdict: Guilty of being too high maintenance.

We're sisters recovering from our propensity to accumulate stuff. Self help and organizing methods have worked...uh, not so much. Instead, we've decided to get rid of one thing a day, every day, until the end of 2010. Join us!
The Rules
One thing a day. It counts only when it leaves the house.
We'll report on origin, how long we've had it, usage, where it is going, and why we've held onto it.
Click here for more on The Rules, which are arbitrary and subject to change without notice!
Oh, yeah: sense of humor and kindness are both essential.

The Reasons
Someone Might Need It.
It's Perfectly Good.
It Might Be Useful.
I Might Fix It (and it will be useful).
It Was A Gift From (fill in the blank).
It Belonged To (add name of dead relative).
I Forgot That I Had It/Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind.
Someday, It Will Be Fashionable Again.
It Will Fit Me Again Someday.
Free-Floating Guilt.
Nostalgia.
It's Worth Money, If Only I Had A Buyer!
It Was Free.
Should Have Said "No."
Good Crafting Intentions Gone Bad.
AAArrrgghhh!
