adair: prevent disorder, don't run (keep cool)
[personal profile] adair posting in [community profile] unclutter
It is clear I am really overcommitted, because I seem to have thought today was Friday. Here is a Friday Report on Wednesday.

I have been engaged with taxes and preparing for the BTP book sale and collecting books for prison libraries and corresponding about library needs; have done little extra in my house.

I did keep sorting papers than land on 3 major surfaces; the box of tax stuff is still on my kitchen table, but it will leave as soon as I make space in the filing cabinet for 2018 tax folder (it's actually one of those brown expansion folders with an elastic band - people in the US will probably recognize it) because it is bulky, and needs to join others from 2012-2017. I will probably put all but the last two in a banker's box to stash in the garage. There are a couple of boxes with more in there; some can probably be shredded but I have to think about it. Anyway, I did not manage to keep my kitchen table clear for the last two weeks, but things should change.

I have take 18 books to BTP in March, but the box of books to move on is empty, and I have not been working on my shelves, or piles, or other stashes. I hope to get back to it after the BTP book sale, and my trip to Boston to the BTP national convention. This means I might get back to work around April 15.

Household organization, and uncluttering, takes time, and never seems to end.

Oh dear. At least you were ahead of yourself, so you have more time?

I sympathise about endless nature of organisation and uncluttering. Such small steps, and so many of them needed.
