This looks like another good one!

Task - Go around your house with a shopping bag and fill it with outdated magazines, catalogues, newsletters, newspapers, brochures and books. Put the magazines and books in the trunk of your car to take to Goodwill, your library or bookstore. Put the rest in the recycling bin. Finally, make a pile of newsletters and clipped articles that you want to read immediately and put them in a basket - make it a goal to read through them by the end of the week.

I do a pretty good job of this, but I do end up with a stack of magazines by my computer "to read" when I get the chance, or dog eared with articles I want to clip. I'm going to go through them now and get rid of the pile!!!

This is a huge problem of mine. My husband loves free magazines and manages to get all sorts of crap sent to us! I have kindly asked him to cut back but he doesn't see the problem! I've attempted to point out that I rarely have seen him read Opera News or Cowboy Something but he assures me that he does! Drives me batty!
