These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

August Happiness Challenge -- Day 7
Peapod grocery bags. They are larger and sturdier than other plastic shopping bags. I am drowning in them these days, so I have been putting them to good use. Friday I took a lot of them with me to the annual library book fair, to be used by book lovers unprepared for their haul. Then today I filled one up with crap from my bedroom floor. It's good to get rid of some of that junk, and vacuum thoroughly the carpet that had been obscured by it. Now I'm eager to fill another Peapod bag with junk!
I mentioned in my Sunday Stealing that the last gift I received was a bottle of champagne and orange juice... it was a reward from my therapist for meeting my decluttering goals for the summer.

So, I applaud your steps at decluttering!
