Heading TO The Homestretch!! It's Thursdays Challenge!

Happy Thursday Folks!! The daily challenge continues. If you are joining us for the first time today, I suggest you go back to this Monday's post and start there. For those of you already along for the ride, lets get started!

Yesterday I had you clear off the space of things that did NOT belong and put them into a bag or box or basket. Then I had you put the the bag/box/basket back on the space and to keep it there overnight.  What did you think? Did it seem weird? or awkward? Didn't it look out of place? maybe bulky? If it is a space you use, did it get in the way? 

Today's challenge is:

Can all of those items in the box/bag/basket go to their RIGHT places? Is there room for them? Are THOSE spots cluttered too?? If there is very little to NO room, then look at those spots the way I had you look at that first spot. If there IS room, then put everything away to its rightful place.

If you are in a position where some of the spots were fine, then put away what you can. AND if there is trash, throw it out!

After all of this, then STOP! How full or empty is the bag/basket/box? If empty, then you are done (for that spot). If there is stuff in the bags, then place them back on the spot. Thank about those spots that are cluttered too.

It's Mid Week!!! The Daily Challenge Continues

Its the middle of the week! We are halfway there! I hope you did your work the last two days. If you are just joining us TODAY, welcome!!! Go check out Monday's post, then Tuesdays and then come back to here. I have them listed Monday through Friday but any FIVE days in a row will work!

SO far I've had you: Identify a cluttered space, figure out why it's cluttered, look for all the things that don't belong in that space and think about how it got there. Hopefully with those four things, you have a nice picture in your head of what is going on.

Today's challenge is:

Get a box or basket or bag(s). Take everything that DOESN'T belong in that space and put it in the box/basket/bag. Toss it in there. Doesn't matter where it goes. We will get to that. Get that space cleared of all things that don't belong there.

When you are done, take a look at that space. Is the counter top a counter top again? Can u see your bed? Now the couch is ready for guests. Look at how nice the space is. OR it may be dirty or dusty depending on how long its been that way. I invite you to vaccum/wipe/dust off that space.  take a look at it again. See how nice it looks!

Then put the bag/box/basket back on top of the space. Leave it there overnight.

The Cause of Clutter

Clutter is caused by patterns and behaviors that CAN be changed. You are NOT alone. WE are not immune to it and sometimes it can seemingly happen out of nowhere!
