    On Saturday I’m going to go through the paper files in our house and blitz them! I’m putting it down here so I commit to it

    And done! Now to list a bunch of spare stuff on marketplace and ebay and see what I can be rid of!
  • I'm nervous about tomorrow, so I think my plan will be to turn on the radio and listen, and while I'm doing that I can work on redoing the main set of shelves in the pantry. They get used all the time so periodically it gets to be time for a straighten and put right, and it's time for that now.

    I came across these articles and I thought about this thread. Maybe somebody can relate to what is written and even get some ideas. I didn't read them to completion yet, but here they go:

    Trying to do decluttering in hour segments so I don't get bogged down. Going through old files & shredding or recycling papers, then doing clothes. 1 1/2 bags of clothes so far to donate. Just doing winter clothes for now, then will do summer when I decide what I really like/need when it warms up. (I'm in Iowa, so definitely don't need summer things right now, lol)

    @Gisel2015 Thanks for the links. I like reading things like that.

    I like the way she explains things. Maybe you find it helpful too.

    I did the 365 day challenge on Home Solutions 101 a few years ago, and found that it helped me develop quick routines to stay on top of clutter. It does a daily 15 minute declutter, and over the year you tackle various areas in the home.
