    Angry I fell off the wagon YET AGAIN!

    I'm still 'thinking' about my clutter!

    I've read LOTS of de-clutter books, joined all the web-sites and I think I'm familiar with ALL the rules, articles and just about everything EVER written on the subject!

    Now here's the surprising bit (where my challenged brain cell went missing!)

    NO elves come and do it in the night for you - no matter how long you wait!

    It doesn't DO itself either.

    And despite the fact I HATE cleaning and sorting and for ME to have to do it is 'unfair' (lol) - It ain't gonna get done any other way! (I can't believe that only just dawned on me! )

    Also writting plans is NOT the same as DOING!

    I just found out something else I've always known - Clutter costs you money!

    I just bought my kids new t-shirts to go back to school next week, because the house fairy ate the ones we had - Cleaning up the PILES of ironing in about 3 different rooms on the floor I found about 15 school t-shirts!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I HAVE TO DO THIS! - I'm going for it TODAY! I need your on-going encouragement AGAIN!

    You can do it! These ladies inspired me earlier in the week and I've cleaned out two closets and my bedroom as a result!

    You can do it Bev. Don't yourself up over it. Just grab a pile and dig in. While you are at it, grab one of those kids and throw them in the pile I hope that you have a great day and its productive for you.

    Try not to do it all at one time, that works for me. I set a time limit, maybe an hour and just go to it for that time. Sometimes I am so into it I just keep going for a while. And don't just move it, carry a trash bag and when it's empty take it to the curb!
