Weekly (ish) check in
Dec. 17th, 2024 10:26 pm... this was meant to happen on Friday. I am not entirely sure how it is already Tuesday!
Hi Everyone!
This is your check in for the week ending Friday 13th December. Have you found something to declutter? Made a plan that you can implement later? What are your recent decluttering wins? -- big, small, it all counts.
Open to regulars, drive by commenters, and lurkers alike!

Date: 2024-12-17 07:48 pm (UTC)One approach to decluttering that I know a lot of people here find helpful is Dana K White's 5-step No Mess Decluttering.
It's (basically) 1) Trash 2) Easy Stuff 3) Duh Donations 4) If I needed this, where would I look for it (and take it there now) 5) Keep what will fit
I think you get a copy of it if you sign up to her newsletter, but she goes through it in a podcast here:

She also has a lot of videos online and there's a decluttering basics page with links to various blog posts at https://www.aslobcomesclean.com/decluttering-basics/
(She's very entertaining and funny to listen to/watch and she really gets how hard decluttering can be because she used to be very very bad at it herself.)
