In case you haven’t heard of Picaboo either, it’s an amazing company that creates the most fantastic scrapbooks ever!  Oh yeah, and it’s super simple and the software is FREE too!  Plus, the finished scrapbooks cost WAY less than what I have spent on my other scrapbooks done by hand.  And, it only took me a fraction of the time too!

So, I wanted to share with you how wonderful Picaboo is.  I ended up entering the giveaway (I had . . . → Read More: Do You Picaboo?

How did you do this week on the 75 in 75 Challenge?  Originally my goal was to eliminate 75 items in 75 days. Well, when I passed that goal by week 3, then I upped the challenge to be 225 items eliminated in 75 days.  When I got close to 225 items just one week later in week 4, I set a crazy goal of 750 items eliminated in 75 days.  Last week on week 10, I passed that goal with 818 items eliminated from my home.
