This is a make-your-own-rules kind of thing; if it feels like clutter and it's now gone, that's great - no matter if it's a thing, a time commitment, or a bit of excess weight.Jeri Danskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01647833266269245240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-704880211038951882009-03-22T14:21:00.000-07:002009-03-22T14:21:00.000-07:00Does body weight count as decluttering?

I'm proud to share that I purged 7 paper shopping bags full of paper and was able to disassemble<BR/>two 32 inch wide sets of my IKEA IVAR shelves and put them in the attic! I'm so thankful the Ikea shelves just come apart. My office feels even more spacious now. <BR/><BR/>AND I feel better overall. I'm so glad I discovered how therapeutic clutter clearing is! We also decluttered our garage and freed up 30% of the space...<BR/><BR/>Next: the attic!

Alth...There must be something in the air or water! Although I haven't set myself any decluttering goals, I am actually doing it. (Far better to be doing than planning!) This is the first time almost since we moved into our house that I haven't been studying, and I'm slowly reclaiming my house. Bit by bit, project by project, box by box. I have no idea how much I've ditched (one way or another) but I know I seem to be constantly tripping over bags in the front entrance (on their way to a new home).<BR/>We're not even real clutter bugs, but its still very freeing to release unused items.SueBKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484316295832915889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-6128608729657540202009-03-16T21:46:00.000-07:002009-03-16T21:46:00.000-07:00Allison, thanks for the pointer to Cluttercast!Ang...Allison, thanks for the pointer to Cluttercast!<BR/><BR/>Angela and Cynthia, I look forward to reading more about your progress on your blogs. <BR/><BR/>Susan, I hope you'll let me know how you do, too.Jeri Danskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01647833266269245240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4238401484560614586.post-32936631192478373762009-03-16T18:36:00.000-07:002009-03-16T18:36:00.000-07:00What a great topic!
