What do you need to "toss" from your life? What things are maybe holding you back or cluttering up your life? Make today the day that you "toss" the stuff that doesn't serve you anymore.
I am tossing:
1. Anxiety over paperwork for my old job...and... 2. Paperwork from my old job that I don't need to keep

I'm tossing out the clutter room by room as I prepare for our garage sale. What a feeling of relief.

I am tossing:
1. Negativity at the office since it's my only day there today & I need it to be productive. 2. Worry about things out of my control. 3. Tossing the trash & recycles today because like Wanda, it's trash collection day in my neighborhood! :)

April 9 Toss-it Tuesday
It's been awhile since we have had a Toss-it Tuesday.
What do you need to "toss" from your life? What things are maybe holding you back or cluttering up your life? Make today the day that you "toss" the stuff that doesn't serve you anymore.
I am tossing:
1. I'm tossing out tears and finding all the joy in my memories. 2. I'm tossing out fear over having my surgery and focusing on the benefits that will be the result. 3. I'm tossing out the garbage...it's garbage collection day today!
Hugs, Wanda

Wanda, this is a perfect one for me!
Today I tossed about 6 shipping boxes that I'd saved at home for shipping holiday gifts...except I don't buy gifts anymore...so they are now on their way to our recycling center...
Now I will work on my desk at work.

Tossing the fear of not being able to balance two jobs and balance having a life with two jobs! Gone!

Today I will toss the clutter on my desk and along with that toss the aversion that I have to doing that job.

August 17 Toss-it Tuesday
What have you got going on in your life that is no longer serving you? Make today the day that you toss it out. Perhaps it clutter in your home, at work or in your mind, perhaps it's that temptation in the cupboard, perhaps it's your attitude. Take a stand today and toss it.
Today, I'm tossing out my negative feelings about cold weather. I can not change the weather, so why am I growling about it not being what I want! It serves no purpose. Hugs, Wanda

There are a few people in my life I would like to toss long and far. Instead I am going to toss my attitude about them and try ot look at them in a more postive light

Looking at my desk, it is apparent that I could (yes, should) toss some stuff. I'll make time to tackle it today.

Now this would of been good for me yesterday, I sorted through my scrap paper and kept some for me as that's what I use when I make my cards and I gave the rest to our Stamp'n Up demonstrator last night for her to use at stamp clubs and workshops. When I get home from visiting my sis today I'll have to see what I can eliminate, I am sure I'll be able to find something. Good challenge Wanda, helps to remind us we hang on to too much stuff.
Didn't happen today, instead of getting rid of I ended up bring two sacks of paperback books that my sis had brought down home, so I did the reverse of what we were suppose to do, the good news is I won't keep all the books, some will go in our 3 day sale here in May. This was just a nice day of visiting with my sis and then going to meeting at church in the evening.
get rid of unecessary stuff today! Shirl

April 13...sounds like a great day for a "Toss-it Tuesday".
What have you got in your life that no longer serves you? Time to get rid of it.
What are you tossing today?
I'm tossing out "being tired". It is not serving me, so I'm changing my attitude!

Okay. So I wasn't successful at work...but took down a bag full of junk mail for recycling at home!
Now, the boss didn't come in yesterday like he was supposed to do...so I think he may be in Kathy's bin...

Kathy and Mauri...I'm still laughing! Way to go!
I've placed in my work bag some kitchen items that I cleaned out of my cupboards this weekend and I'm taking them to work tomorrow with me to "donate". We had a great weekend of "tossing". The feeling is so great that I thought it would make a good challenge for today.

It's time to clear the old stuff, the broken stuff, the no-longer-serving-a-purpose stuff and make way for some new energy and positiveness in your life. Toss those negative thoughts...they are the worst!

Just like the name says...today we are tossing things.
You know those papers that seem to accumulate on the counter or table...yep those ones. Go through them today and toss the junk mail and all the rest that does not need any other action taken. Toss those old bedroom slippers that are worn out, toss the broken things, toss anything that is not serving a useful purpose. It's time to clear the old stuff, the broken stuff, the no-longer-serving-a-purpose stuff and make way for some new energy and positiveness in your life. Toss those negative thoughts...they are the worst! You will be amazed how much more free you feel when you know you have tackled these things. Recycle, donate or trash, those are your options. Have a positively, productive day.
Hugs, Wanda
