Got to keep the momentum going if I am to get all things done by the end of November. Glad that I am relatively on top of things so that when I hit a bump it is not too hard to recover from.

Hope that you all have a great week.

You have been doing so well, don't change what has been working for you.

I was feeling overwhelmed with the lists but you are right. My main focus will be the HHP and then the house cleaning. Even if I don't get to everything on the house cleaning list each week, I can do it the next time around.

 

[sweetpumkinpye]

We all get overwhelmed at time with all that we have to do. But I keep thinking how much easier things are now because of the efforts we have gone through. If things slide a little it is not a disaster, we just pickup and go again,

I'm glad you said that. You reminded me of something that I wanted to share from last week. The piano tuner came over. This year, because I've been doing the weekly cleaning more or less consistently, I wasn't rushing around like a mad woman trying to get the room straightened up. That was an incredible feeling.

It's the little things that have made a difference. I can always find my car keys now. I sometimes lose my glasses lol.
Just seem to be a little calmer

I find with the decluttering I have been doing it is so much easier to clean and keep it clean. I don't have a bunch of stuff sitting around to ignore because I don't want to dust it.

That is a good point Jody. I still have things in my house but most everything I have now I love and it has a place. The throws in the loungeroom live in a basket now, the keys in a dish on the entry way cupboard. The clothes in my wardrobe all fit and I like them. Things are certainly much easier this year.
I know that in the new year I will go through everything again and tweak things to keep on top of it all
