Successes: I have got the "paper" down to only the stuff that I need to hold on to for now. That includes a lot of work/tax/financial related paperwork that I'll be able to cull each year. As I've pretty much retired, I won't really be adding new stuff, especially as most of my personal finances are paper-free these days.
I've dealt with a backlog of recycling, including recycling a bunch of packaging, that built up when the local council removed the really convenient recycling banks while building work was happening. (It's now 5 months since they said they'd do a health and safety inspection to see if they can put them back....)
And I've made some good progress on "uncluttering" the garden, despite extremely unhelpful weather.
Challenges: Taking some stuff in the garage to the tip/dump. That's not happened thanks to a combination of scheduling, weather and oomph. (But is now annoying me enough I may get the oomph to schedule it and do it....)
My pile of to-be-read magazines has grown. I enjoy reading them ‐ but reading a little each day fell out of my daily schedule, so I need to put that back in.

Plans: more work on the garden, the magazines.
