Hi guys -- I'm back on the forums for the season on the HHP threads and I'll be jumping back on this one too! Super motivated!! You guys are doing great and I keep finding myself saying: Yeah, I gotta do that too!
I got a LOT out of the house last year but I'm excited because this season I'm going to Marie Kondo each section of the plan. Last year when the season hit I was just starting the Marie Kondo method and I did clothes, books and then the Paper category took forever! Lordy! And then I was off of it for Spring and Summer because just had no time. Now I'm ready to ramp up again in the Miscellaneous section -- which is: everything else. (I think you were all familiar with
Marie Kondo's The Magical Art of Tidy -- the one from Japan? We talked about it last year. Great book.)
She has 5 categories to be done in order:
1. Clothes
2. Books
3. Paper
4. Miscellaneous -- that is everything else broken into subcategories. -
*Insert that scary music again here.*
5. Sentimental/Photos.
(Or maybe it was 6 categories and Photos was #5). Anyhow -- I'm entering #4. Just in time for HHP! And I've only just this week realized how perfect that will be. I can do them both at once! Excellent!
Yesterday was crafting supplies. Still working on it but almost done! Hard to get rid of crafting supplies when you have kids.
Skippy -- Interested in the organization that gives to people who have lost their homes to fire and such. Is it national? I give to a womens shelter but right now they are overstocked and in pretty good shape so looking for another cause.
SweetPumpkinPie & FrostyShimmer -- What did you do with your DVDs and CDs? I have stacks of those but not sure what to do with them. My computers no longer have disk drives to burn them. Those are painful to part with though I never use them and I've been putting those off. Have all DS's old Wii games too -- for those I'm waiting on a 2-for-1 trade in at GameStop.
Wow -- I"m sure being chatty!
