I need to switch mine around, I'd love to be able to post larger photos like you've done.<br /><br />I'm afraid I'll be no help whatsoever with helping you de-clutter, other than to stand on the sidelines cheering you on! ;-)<br /><br />AnneAnne Loryshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06586805595011675799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-236325554200840914.post-48282662947853146442010-01-21T19:25:05.667-07:002010-01-21T19:25:05.667-07:00Oh, I forgot to say that I love the comfy look and...Oh, I forgot to say that I love the comfy look and feel of your blog.Maxinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040368808197747483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-236325554200840914.post-77570914765561919932010-01-21T19:23:17.370-07:002010-01-21T19:23:17.370-07:00Now you've made me ashamed, Laurie! I am LONG ...Now you've made me ashamed, Laurie! I am LONG overdue, but I know I won't get to anything like that until who knows when. All I know is that I did a great job years ago when I read Emilie Barnes' book "Survival for Busy Women" where she suggested using three trash bags: "Throw Away," "Give Away," and "Put Away" and going to each area of clutter and putting everything in one of the three bags. I even followed her suggestion and used white cardboard boxes for storing things, with a 3x5 card system for the various items in the boxes. Those days are long gone and this house needs a major decluttering again, but alas, can't do it now. Thanks for those links, though. Maybe I'll file away a couple of them in my Favorites folder for the future.<br /><br />Keep us posted on your progress!Maxinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00040368808197747483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-236325554200840914.post-77723838906093351202010-01-21T19:16:26.166-07:002010-01-21T19:16:26.166-07:00Hi Laurie,

Living in a cluttered environment makes me feel uncomfortable. I tend to toss/giveaway too easily and sometimes regret it. My favorite saying is "a place for everything and everything in its place" totally annoys my youngest daughter but it really seems to make life easier for me.<br /><br />Keeping up with it is a constant job and it still creeps up on me. The garage is where overflow goes. Seems I no sooner get it in order and it needs it again!GratefulPrayerThankfulHearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05912258806814037028noreply@blogger.com
