Organizing + Decluttering Goal

 Another Goal: decluttering/organizing

I think I am gonna do a Jan-heavy org'ing (the 30 days kinda thing), to make a big push, and also 100 days...hopefully will mostly be done by then, because it really needs to be & things would be SO much better when it is! My main projects to declutter/organize/re-set-up are a few large rooms in the basement, in the next 30 days, including my bedroom, office, exercise area, 2 craft spaces (wet, dry) & TV area. Also, later, in the rest of the first 100 days of the year (basically into April) some other areas, esp. the garage, & maybe an area to start seeds for the garden.

Much of this WAS organized at one point, but a couple of (smallish but very disruptive) floods....

Also, I am a scrap-craft'r, I hate throwing out perfectly useful resources for future projects (why give my $$$ to Michael's when I can diy many things if I don't throw stuff away.... ;)

    Very good goal. De-cluttering our space will help us to have a wonderful mind-set. I am doing little by little cleaning. My plan is by 2020 to have everything organized.

    I LOVE decluttering.. I am also a scrap-crafter. My favorite thing to do is walk around secondhand stores looking for crafting treasures.

    I have been bing watching "Consumed" and "Tidying Up with Marie Kondo" on Netflix recently emoticon

    So many of us are working on organizing/decluttering. Part of the problem is too much stuff! I am purging. A lot! It's like helping my home lose weight. A little at a time. We'll get there!

    Look into the Facebook group declutter 365 by Taylor Flannery . I love it and I don't buy her extra stuff.

Day 4: 100 Day Blogging Challenge; Long Cardio Day in the end

Image
  When I've done well in the past, I had to work up to 2 hours or more of working out daily, at least some of the time, consistently. So far the longest in 2020 that I've worked out was 75 min, which was what was happening today: 3 Small victories: -15+15+25 min indoor cycling (at 4:00, 6:00, & 9:00 pm) -20 min cleaning -Then I decided to watch the Biggest Loser, on demand, & can't watch other people working out to lose weight without getting up, so I just did some marching in place, for 45 min. =around 200 calories, equal to 1 candy bar I've eaten in the past, now burned off. 3 Blessings: -being a woman in the 21st century and the much greater freedom I have than my foremothers, even my own mother, had -the internet, for connection -that I have the capacity and resources to make this commitment to myself work 3 Goals for Thurs -same as Wed (didn't get 'em done) Member Comments About This Blog Post v LIFECHANGZ  gr8! did you see a new Biggest loser start...

Blogday 13(-5)_100days: 'How're you getting groceries?' (& some bi*ching & whining)

Image
  A team I'm on posted the q: "How have you been getting groceries". I started to answer, but once I got into it, and got personal, I opted to not post my very long answer to clog the thread, so I'm posting here. Most of the team did some form of online ordering. I go in and shop, sometimes taking advantage of senior hours, sometimes doesn't work out w/schedules. Also, 4 times so far, my sister, who's an essential IT nursing home worker, and out and about for herself anyway would get us stuff, but she's very into meat and not great at veg. {Okay...here's the bi*ching & whining}: I have no one else to tell, except my one sister (not the IT one, the ww one) and have already said after this is over I am leaving or not doing it anymore: I'm very picky*/specific about veg as is mom about random stuff, and she's 80; I currently live with her (and dad, 85), and still get shouted at because nothing's ever perfect—but the whole fam knows that an...

My thoughts on school openings; BlogDay37/100(-26)

Image
  This started as a response to a spark friend's similarly titled post, but I decided to post it here: News in the past fortnight: masks *DO* protect the wearer...Dr. Sanjay Gupta on CNN on a recent early AM had a graph with how much protection they offer: bandanas = some, cone paper = more, stitched cloth double layer = most. Here's an article I found about this doing a quick search: https://www.msn.com/en-us/heal th/me dical/how-much-protection-do es- your-mask-give-you-others/ar -BB16purY You could find the exact numbers if you care to do further research. If they didn't offer protection, hospitals wouldn't have been/be screaming for more PPE. Other countries are doing better, because they had sane policies that followed the science, sooner or later. It's political because it's been SO bungled here, and thus politicized further. Following science is all that'll get US out of this mess; I support schools being open, along the same lines as states should be...
