Mary GeraldineSaturday...

...was the first day cleaning out my old house that I’ve been using to store all the nonsense that I don’t use. Finally. It has been sitting empty of human life for years.

I threw away 25 of those large industrial trash bags worth of useless items, donated 2 boxes of items, and kept 10 boxes of items. A total of 2 interior rooms and 1/2 of the garage was cleaned out in the first day. There are 6 rooms and 1/2 the garage left to clean. Tomorrow will be the second day in this project.

I will probably end up with about 50 boxes of “keep” items plus furniture. I will then sort the items in these 50 boxes again in order to eliminate another 50% of those items and organize them into what to move to my new house and what to put into a storage unit.

Once this project is done, I hope to be motivated to throw away 50% of the items in my new house to make room for what I will be transporting. I have suffered from hoarding tendencies (obviously) in the past and am working hard to remedy the situation and create a healthy living environment. 2 months ago

kaleidoscopeladyit gets crazy

It gets so crazy around here so darn quickly. Everywhere I look it chaos.

I’ll keep chipping away til it’s done…actually more likely, I’ll go crazy and get it all lovely for a while then be lazy again and let it go to shit.

cuz, that’s how I roll. 7 months ago

alexljsandersThis bathroom and stash and dash piles

So tonight I have to spend 15 mins declutttering the bathroom. This will be easy it is the only place in the house that is generally clean.

If I finish before 15 mins, I then have to wipe down the toilet (gross) and spend 5 mins tackling a pile of clutter elsewhere in the house 8 months ago
