The first month of 2014 has closed it’s final page. I can’t believe how quickly this month has flown by.
Michigan was hit with the Snowpocalypse where we received a ton of snow. Looking out of certain windows, you can’t see anything but the snow. It’s crazy.
How about you? How’s the weather and things going with you and your family?

With that, it’s time to dig into statistics, something that I love.

For the first time in a long time, 10 Facts You Should Know About Modern Day Slavery isn’t in the top spot. This top post has been replaced by a relatively newer post.
My post where I shared about losing my best friend has also remained in the top 10 list. I truly hope the pain I’ve gone through with this loss has helped others deal with similar situations.

A week ago I wrote a post in regards to collecting junk. Within the post was a challenge to declutter your life by getting rid of items you may no longer need.
The challenge isn’t big. It’s getting rid of one item a day for the month of February. By the end of the month, you should be able to get rid of 28 items that are cluttering up your life.
Want to see the junk cluttering up my life? Here are three pictures showing what my office looks like. Please don’t be afraid!
As you can see, my life really needs some decluttering. The plan is to kick a lot of this junk to the curb.
During the month, I won’t be throwing it away immediately. I want to keep each item until the end of the month and capture the amount of clutter I removed from my home office.
I hope you’ll join me in this challenge. I think this will help us all get rid of a bunch of unneeded items from our lives. Are you in?
