So why am I doing this???

So many of you might ask why am I doing this blog?  It all started with the thought that we might be moving at some point in the next 5 years. And I was overwhelmed with a feeling of dread at the idea of moving this entire house any distance.  I have tried to declutter in the past and it always lasts about a month and then I seem to loose my purpose.  So a blog where I have to account for why I didn't do my assigned task for the day seemed like a stroke of genius:)

So far so good.  Day 5: declutter the cabinet above the fridge!  Check!  Lots of stuff I didn't even know was up there.  Now I look at everything and ask myself:  "Do you like this enough to pack it and take it with you??"  If the answer is no, out it goes.  We also just bought a new desk which opened up a lot of new tasks I hadn't bargained for taking on just yet.  Apparently in this house, new desk equals total reorganization of the house, not just a simple desk swap:)  So I also spent today taking all of my husbands sports memorabilia off of his shelves, dusting and boxing them until we move them upstairs.

Tomorrow I tackle the junk drawer which should be interesting since I have no idea how to organize all that crap!  Plus I am sure another task in the craft/new office area.
