Allen took all the shoes out of the closet in the laundry room and I got rid of 4 pairs and I think he threw 3 or 4 in. I have another pair in my room to go out.
March Decluttering
- Thread starter Lana
- Start date
We tackled the garage over the weekend. We moved into our house at the end of Oct and with it being so close to the holidays and winter we still had not unpacked everything. We managed to unpack a few more boxes/totes, throw some stuff out, organize the outside fall, halloween, thanksgiving and Christmas decoration and get them put away in the attic over the garage.
We have a pile of boxes that we still need to go through, a pile for he yard sale and a pile for donations. We still have a lot left to do but we at least got the half of the garage space back. Hoping to be able to go through and empty one box/tote a week.
The shed still needs to be cleaned and organized but that will be done sometime in April/May.

I agree Ginger, a never ending process. I am much further ahead then I have ever been though. Once I started decluttering I have tried really hard to keep on top of it. There are still problem spots but certainly better than say 3 years ago.
Over the weekend I went through all the personal papers and shredded them.

NEVER EVER ENDING IS POLITICALLY (SP!) CORRECT!!!!!
But little by little getting better somewhat!!!!

I too am better than 3 years ago. DS is becoming a bit more of a hoarder of things though!
I now find it easier to get rid of stuff that I once would have kept as a just in case I need it.
Not memories or important items but inconsequential things like food storage jars in weird sizes that I have never used and will never use. Im am now much better at if I have not used it since the last time I decluttered this area then I don't really need it or want it.
I am also much better at putting things in their place- since I created a place for everything to go! Once upon a time I would just walk through the house and put clutter in random drawers and not have any idea where things were.
