\u00a0It\u2019s time to clear them out and donate them for better use!<br \/>\n<strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><strong>2.<\/strong> Cabinets \u2013 When was the last time you looked at the expiration dates on the products in you medicine chest? \u00a0Take some time to check them and properly discard anything that is past its prime. \u00a0You could also take this opportunity to do something with all of those little travel size toiletries. \u00a0I like to fill \u201cguest boxes\u201d to keep in the spare rooms so I have supplies handy for friends and family.<br \/>\n<strong> <\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong>3.<\/strong> Pantry \u2013 If you take a minute to really look at your pantry, you\u2019ll probably notice the old cooking supplies, stale cereal and massive amounts of plastic bags. \u00a0Clean it out!<br \/>\n<strong> <\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong>4. <\/strong> Offices \u2013 Take the time to sit down and clear out those stacks of junk mail, magazines and things to file.<br \/>\n<strong> <\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong>5.<\/strong> Storage containers \u2013 Do you remember what\u2019s in all of those boxes filling the garage or attic? \u00a0If not, then they\u2019re probably not worth the storage space. \u00a0Sort through them and decide what you really want to keep and what can be put in the garage sale. \u00a0You might even want to invest in some totes to protect your valuables from water or critter damage.<br \/>\n<strong> <\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong>6.<\/strong> Garage \u2013 Since you\u2019re already out there sorting through the storage containers, you might as well go ahead and organize all of the other stuff that\u2019s gotten tossed or piled in the space where your car should be.<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"visibility: hidden; width: 0px; height: 0px;\" src=\"http:\/\/counters.gigya.com\/wildfire\/IMP\/CXNID=2000002.0NXC\/bT*xJmx*PTEyODgwNjg5MzU5NTcmcHQ9MTI4ODA2ODkzOTM5OCZwPTQ*MTQ*MiZkPSZnPTImbz*4ZDI2NzBhZDI2Mjk*NjVmYmE4\/NmJhMDY4ZDJhOGFmOCZvZj*w.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"0\" height=\"0\" \/><object id=\"MevioWM\" classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"500\" height=\"236\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"align\" value=\"middle\" \/><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"never\" \/><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"quality\" value=\"high\" \/><param name=\"FlashVars\" value=\"distribConfig=http:\/\/www.mevio.com\/widgets\/configFiles\/distribconfig_mwm_pcw_default.php?r=3705023&amp;autoPlay=false&amp;container=false&amp;rssFeed=\/%3FsId=277%26sMediaId=8066854%26format=json&amp;playerIdleEnabled=false&amp;fwSiteSection=DistribGeneric\" \/><param name=\"bgcolor\" value=\"#000000\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/ui.mevio.com\/widgets\/mwm\/MevioWM.swf?r=3705023 \" \/><param name=\"name\" value=\"MevioWM\" \/><param name=\"flashvars\" value=\"distribConfig=http:\/\/www.mevio.com\/widgets\/configFiles\/distribconfig_mwm_pcw_default.php?r=3705023&amp;autoPlay=false&amp;container=false&amp;rssFeed=\/%3FsId=277%26sMediaId=8066854%26format=json&amp;playerIdleEnabled=false&amp;fwSiteSection=DistribGeneric\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><embed id=\"MevioWM\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"500\" height=\"236\" src=\"http:\/\/ui.mevio.com\/widgets\/mwm\/MevioWM.swf?r=3705023 \" name=\"MevioWM\" bgcolor=\"#000000\" flashvars=\"distribConfig=http:\/\/www.mevio.com\/widgets\/configFiles\/distribconfig_mwm_pcw_default.php?r=3705023&amp;autoPlay=false&amp;container=false&amp;rssFeed=\/%3FsId=277%26sMediaId=8066854%26format=json&amp;playerIdleEnabled=false&amp;fwSiteSection=DistribGeneric\" quality=\"high\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" allowscriptaccess=\"never\" align=\"middle\"><\/embed><\/object><br \/>\n<strong>===<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><em><span style=\"font-style: normal;\">Amy Mac\u2019s 2nd book<\/span><strong> <a title=\"fitness book\" href=\"http:\/\/fittip.me\/93klWT\">Fitness Made Too Easy<\/a><\/strong><strong> <\/strong><\/em>is going to be released on Halloween 2010! \u00a0That\u2019s right,\u00a0<strong>10\/31\/10<\/strong>!
