I have not been doing much decluttering either but have not bought anything. Bloomingdales is having Friends/Family but I don't really need or want anything right now. Still too cold here to think about spring clothing

Hi All~

Haven't posted in a bit, but remain mindful of the many discussions and suggestions we've shared. I continue to be careful of ALL spending and work at making periodic donations to declutter.

Am planning a Garage Sale in the spring ~ a bit overwhelming but I think it will really make a dent and help me on the road to having less stuff around : )

HUGS to bellaJ ~ thinking of you {#emotions_dlg.sad} soooo difficult!!

I've been working on the downstairs bathroom for a few days (it's the bathroom my hubby uses while getting ready for work early in the mornings). Usually he does the cleaning of it, but I wanted to do a "deep clean"/declutter in there. Just finished up today. The decluttering part was easy, for me, lol. I just boxed up all his stuff and asked him to go through and get rid of things he does not, or no longer uses. He had quite a stash, for a man (IMO). And I was right, the amount to go back in is about half. I hope this is an eye opener for him, as my cleanouts have been for me. We do plan to renovate this bathroom at some point, but this will make it much easier to clear out when we are ready to move on the renovation.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Good Morning everyone, it has been a while since I checked in, but I'm still keeping at the goal (at a much slower and less frenetic pace). Have we started an April thread as of yet?..just curious. In any case, I hope you are all still managing tasks, big or tiny, as best you can.

bellaj, so sorry to hear about your furbaby. I'm also mother to a cat, and "step-mom" to my SO's cat, as well, and although both can be quite the handful, they are much loved in both of our households and could not imagine being without them.
