I have several friends preparing for their Lenten sacrifice. I am not Catholic but value Lent and the idea of giving up/doing something out of my comfort zone in preparation for Easter.
So, for me this year, I am going to participate in the "40 Bags in 40 Days" challenge

It seems like I am always taking a bag here, a bag there to Goodwill, but do I really dig in and "sacrifice" things that I might like, but no longer use or need??
I also plan to re-read Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World, and doing the 12 week study to remind myself to find intimacy with God in the busyness of life.
I am linking up with white house, black shutters, and plan to post my progress here every Friday as a way to keep me accountable :) I will also post a pic of my list of what I plan to tackle!
Care to join me??
