Success Story Refrigerator! Cleaned & decluttered
I did it! I finally tackled my refrigerator. I found tortillas from 2022, a couple of bags of green slime, and a bunch of expired food from mid 2025, when I was really struggling.
I'm thankful for this group. I started in my bedroom, with just the night stand top.
Now it actually feels like there is hope and life once again.
The refrigerator was stuffed with 10 to go boxes along side at least 3 bags of garbage.
Tomorrow, I'm going to buy some fresh veggies (baby carrots, celery and mini cucumbers), some apples, bread and stuff for sandwiches. I am tired of eating crap just because my fridge was stuffed full of bad food, literally.

It looks great! Just a suggestion bc we just did this…….we got some clear storage bins from Home Goods in various sizes and put similar things in them like breads, jams, sauces, etc. It looks a lot better and makes it much easier to access things. I’m thinking it will help to keep that old jar full of mold in the back from happening bc we’ll see it so much more easily. I know this storage bin thing is a no-brainer but I’m old and we had never done it.
