The other day I was cleaning out the cabinet under the sink in the bathroom and I found not one, not two, not three, but 9 unopened tubes of toothpaste still in their boxes!! I called the kids in, so they all could see them, process it, and realize that not having enough toothpaste is not an issue. LOL As I looked and reorganized under the cabinet I found lots of soap, shampoo, deodorant, razors, ect..... I am donating some of them to the "Blessing Box" at church. <BR/><BR/>I try to be a good steward of what God has given us, but I know that hoarding is not the answer. It is okay to be prepared, but when does preparedness turn to hoarding? <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the great article!! :0)rural mommahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13959205387717953570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2646552345065536552.post-786642222566447562008-08-08T17:27:00.000-04:002008-08-08T17:27:00.000-04:00This is so true and something I've come to embrace in the last month. I heard or read somewhere that clutter is pile of unmade decisions and it is so true. Even if we are getting free items through frugal shopping habits, what good is it doing us and how much more good could it do someone with an empty pantry? And how good does it feel to share our blessings with others? Bravo!Chris &amp; Lisahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14801303722883088371noreply@blogger.com
