So have you already finished/started your "Spring Cleaning"?

I've been so busy that I hadn't really started until tonight. I'm always amazed at how somehow I can accumulate stuff, despite my general hatred of shopping.
So tonight I'm supposed to be reading stuff for class and I decided to procrastinate. So I started cleaning out my closet. Would you believe 3 paper grocery bags of stuff no longer fit me? I just cleaned it out about 6 months ago too. And I don't really go clothes shopping either.
Next I'm going to go through the clothes in the dresser, and then I'll see what I've got in the attic. After that, I'll move onto other stuff.
I tend to sell stuff on Ebay if I can, if not, I usually put it on Freecycle. If I can't Freecycle it, I'll donate it. Not always in that order though. Towels and stuff like that always get donated first and so do other things that I know groups need.
So are you a late starter like me with your spring cleaning, or have you already finished?

I've been slowly filling up the attic since we moved last year. Already, my daughter has outgrown 3 sacks of clothes (in 7 months!).
I really should clear out my wardrobe though, it's full of things I never wear. The problem is that as soon as I create some spare space, my wife fills it with her stuff!
I've never sold anything on ebay yet, but my stash is getting quite big now, so I'll have to have a big blowout soon, before my ceiling caves in!

I like to break mine up into small little projects throughout the month, it seems to make things a lot eaiser.

Yeah I'm a late 'bloomer' too. I haven't been feeling that great lately so I haven't even started. Haven't even THOUGHT about starting. Shame on me I know...

I don't usually spring clean; when I get my period I "nest" so I go into this bizarre cleaning mode that usually ends up with me ripping everything apart. Thankfully this little cleaning binge lasts a couple days otherwise I would be tearing things apart and never getting anything back in place.
