Mid-week uncluttering

[fred_mouse]

How is your uncluttering going at this point of the week?

I'm writing this relatively early on Wednesday, and so while I have plans that involve going in to the music room/sewing room/general disaster area and trying to find things that we don't need (in particular, sorting out plastic containers and glass jars) and making a to do list for how to get it back under control, I haven't actually done any uncluttering today. The last two days have involved a lot of lying down feeling grumpy and unwell when at home, so little to no uncluttering has happened.

As we come close to the end of the calendar year, I know some people will be reflecting on achievements for 2017 and setting themselves goals for 2018. In this post, as well as sharing any current uncluttering wins, maybe tell us all how you feel about your overall uncluttering achievements for the year?

That sounds like a very successful year. Paperwork is so insidious in how it mounts up, so well done for getting on top of it.

Also, while you may feel like the house is still crowded, you have cleared a whole space and kept it cleared: the garage! I should imagine that's less (regularly) "visible" than all the stuff that came inside the house (and makes you feel like you didn't make much progress), but it's a huge achievement and one you should be very proud of!

Good luck with 2018!

You are right -- I don't particularly notice the garage, but it was a huge job to get it back to functioning, and we are still dealing with some of the items stored there. I am really pleased about it, when I remember!

And good luck with 2018 for you as well.
