*8Things to Minimize

This is difficult for me... I don't think that I have anything to pair down... haha well maybe a thing or two.

1. DVD's- We have a lot of DVD's that we seldom watch.
2. Spices- I tend to buy one, forget I have it and buy it again.
3. Clothes- They are overflowing.
4. Beds- We need to get rid of two beds that no longer suit our needs.
5. Toys- it seems that the more I pair these down the more I have.
6. Lids- We have more lids then we do containers to go with them.
7. Weight- especially around the waste
   
8. Storage- all kinds of things we don't use that need to be given away
