Decluttering is hard, but it was such an aha moment when I read that clutter cannot be organized. No wonder it feels so impossible to get this place organized! ...It's going to take me a long time to fully de-clutter, but with my kitchen, bathroom, and entryway clean, I'm already feeling a lot better. I guess the livingroom is next...I need a shovel....

My kitchen, bathrooms, living room, and entryways are manageable. The other rooms have accumulated boxes of clutter. I really need to just get rid of stuff in the EASIEST way possible instead of having plans to sell, organize or keep for future art projects. The teacher in me tries to be too resourceful, but I think it's time to just get rid of things so I can have more space. I'm sure there will be the occasional regret...but the freedom from so much junk will probably be worth it!
