Although I didn't declutter as much as I'd hoped in April, I am still quite pleased with the totals. I really feel as though this is an ongoing process. I think that by keeping track of, and posting, the totals, it is helping me keep going with this.
Craft items 26
Books 70
Magazines 6
Misc. 44
I really feel as though I'm doing well with the books. There are still a lot of them to go, but I'm finding it a bit easier to part with them. I am still struggling with the craft room.
Are you still decluttering? How is it going?
Still reading through the magazines
I run through my head all the things that need to go. Then, they sit. I have targets for May to make life calmer so hopefully will get to them. You did great getting any decluttering done.
ReplyDeleteI always have good inspiration late at night when I can't sleep and by the time the daylight comes I've run out of inspiration. I'm plodding along and maybe that way it will get done!
DeleteHow's your leg today? Hopefully it's on the mend now. I need to declutter more books and might get round to it today.
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely getting better day by day. I just have to watch it that I don't overdo it. I'm still working on the books lol.
DeleteDoing well so far! The annual total should be interesting. Are you also recording what comes INTO the house? 😵💫
ReplyDeleteI'm excited to see at the end of the year!
DeleteI'm doing really well with the personal stuff, but I've been doing some online reselling and that means more stuff is coming into the house. I need to do better about listing and getting it back out of the house!
I've totally stopped purchasing craft items, what I have can stay, I've told daughter if she needs craft stuff for the children, come and shop at Nana's. With books I now only keep one book from an author I like, I do often swap them so I have in my opinion the best title I've read.
ReplyDeleteWell done! I'm trying not to buy any craft things, but I get inspired and then well, I shouldn't buy it but I sometimes give in. I'm definitely doing better with the book shopping. I haven't bought any new ones for a while and now I borrow ebooks from the library or wait until they are on sale on my Kindle. I love physical books but I still have so many of them.
DeleteLook at those totals! Very impressive! Especially the books! You are doing great!
ReplyDeleteYes, decluttering is on-going. I slacked off a bit in April, but, I have a goal of 5 items a day in May. But, I haven't done well during the first 4 days of the month, but, I hope to make up for it in the coming days and weeks. :)
Thank you! I hope to read about your decluttering totals.
DeleteI like the sentiment on the magazine page. You could frame that!
ReplyDeleteI love that magazine. I have far too many of them and it's time for them to go. I have photographed a few of my favourite pages though.
