  • Belated Spring Cleaning

    I've been cleaning house.  I started in my room and my closet.  I got things organized that haven't been organized since I moved in here last August. 

    My closet is like a rack in a department store with things hung according to size ... even sizes above and below what I currently wear!  So I cleaned out everything that I'd have to either lose or gain at least 25 pounds to wear again.  Some of the things I put in storage bags and some I donated to the church for a garage sale.  That made my closet much more manageable. 

    I've spent two afternoons already cleaning my desk, and I'm almost to the point that I can imagine that one more afternoon might do it.  I've been fretting that I need a paper shredder to get rid of old documents with private information, Spazzzzz suggested that I just tear them up and put them in with the used kitty litter.  What a KILLER idea!  Anyone who's willing to search through poop to retrieve my personal data is too whacked out for me to worry about what they will do with it. 

    I have my project management plan for the next month.  It's all good. 

    I hope your weekend has been just spiffy and that you are taking time to draw in deep slow breaths and enjoy your life.

  • hey, it's still spring until June 22nd, right?!   

  • i'd love to have someone  come sit here and talk to me while i clean/purge my closet of crap i'll never wear, use, etc. 
    my whole house, actually.  but the closet would be a great start.
    my niece, maggie, offered to do it...i just need to remind her and figure out a good bribe. 
    she's a lot like her mom...not the bribery part...the organizational side. 
    sure didn't get it from her dad, that's for sure.

  • Yes, trying to remember the breathing thing!

    Heh!

  • I just got rid of another big bag to Goodwill but much more that needs to go. Judi

  • You've been busy! 

    Oh...thanks for the breathing reminder.    That felt GOOD. 

  • We did a lot of spring cleaning yesterday, but I still need to "purge" and organize my closet and my art supplies.  Then it's a matter of which of my half-begun projects to pick up and endeavor to finish while the summer is upon us.

  • The cleaning sounds awesome!  I've been doing a wee bit of that myself and I always feel more centered and focused and such when I get stuff done.  Good physical effort always does a body and a soul good.  *hugs* to you and your boys.

  • spring cleaning is always a good idea...anytime of year. i do love my papershredder. it gives me a nice feeling when i shred stuff with my private information. anything else goes in the recycle bin.   before my shredder i'd tear up my account numbers into tiny little pieces by hand.  kitty poo is a good idea too!  if one has a kitty!

  • out with the old and in with the new(except the boys that is)

  • Now you are ready for the week.

  • I'm packing, and only packing the 5% of the stuff that's actually going anywhere.  The rest is all going to go on CraigsList or the dumpster.   So this is like spring cleaning to the extreme.

  • have the boys left yet?

  • yup, smelly kitty litter!!!
