    1. I also decluttered my bedroom closet.
    2. I burned brush out in the yard and raked up.
    3. Bought baby gates (60.00!!!)to keep my dog out of my living room. He has put 3 holes in my brandnew couch with his claws! Hopefully he wont jump the gate! he has also done a number on my hardwood floors. Good thing I love him.
