One hundred and fifty things

I recently read a blog about someone who has decided to eliminate one "thing" (think extra doo-dads, clothing, clutter) every day for a year to simplify and streamline their space.  Having eliminated quite a bit over the last few years, I'm not sure I could find 365 things - unless I started counting each piece of paper as a thing - but I'm going to shoot for 3 things a week.  Starting September 1st, I will eliminate 150 things from our little cottage.  And, yes, it might get to the point where I have to count each paper or file, but the challenge is more about keeping an open mind and open eyes.
Wish me luck!
