I did get up this morning and take a rather dull walk. The beavers were out doing their thing which was rather nice and there weren't many people around. I sat on my log, watched and listened as the gathered geese honked and took off and just made a lot of noise. It was really rather...well, peaceful for all that noise.
Holes in trees like this made me think of my childhood reading Enid Blyton and imagining all kinds of wonderful, fantastical creatures that lived in the woods.
I came home and did a bit more sorting. This week I've managed to get back on it again. I am really pleased with the progress I've made.
Here are some of the things I've managed (well, those I remembered to make note of!)
* 33 Music CDs
* bunch cards
* 4 audio books
* silicone teacup molds
* 2 rolls curling ribbon
* 7 miscellaneous items
* 35 books
* 76 DVDs (wowwww!)
I am SO pleased with what I got accomplished this week. Sadly, it doesn't even seem to have made a dent, but I shall plod on as the more I get rid of the more I'll be able to see the results!
Is anyone else decluttering? Is it an ongoing process or something you do once in a while?
Hope everyone is having a good weekend
Ongoing...sadly and never seems ending! Keep going youre motivating us all
ReplyDeleteThank you for the encouragement! It's definitely ongoing with me. There are some days when I'm ready to let go of a lot and others where I think I 'need' to keep everything!
DeleteI think that decluttering you've done so far is amazing. Well done, we'll crack it given enough time.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! Reading about yours really inspires me to keep going!
DeletePeaceful lake view. You're doing well with your decluttering. I keep meaning to but end up reverse decluttering.
ReplyDeleteIt's my local go-to walk as it's so close to my house. I'm pleased with what I'm getting done. I think with me it's two steps forward and one backward!
DeleteWow, Sharon! You decluttered so much this week! I think you decluttered more in one week than I did in all of October! Well done! Keep it up and you'll soon see the results! I'm still decluttering, but, not making as much progress as I'd like.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm really pleased with what I've got done! I find your decluttering posts inspiring so keep going!
DeleteMoving house is a good nudge to declutter - there's an idea!
ReplyDeleteThat would be the dream! When I'm struggling, I ask myself what I'd like to take with me to my dream two-bedroom cabin lol
DeleteI declutter other's homes....it's hard to do my own
ReplyDeleteI imagine. I know that after Mum's and Jane's I couldn't face my own for a long time, now I just want to make sure my kids don't have to deal with a lot of stuff
