Dumped all the trash in waste baskets in various rooms/bathrooms and washed toilets. :mrgreen:

HRH has continued work on a big declutter project of his upstairs computer/office area. He's had help at different times from dstepson and from me. Lots accomplished. Several nostalgic things discovered, too.

I put away socks I needed to fold, which were on my hope chest with leg warmers and 2 folded hand towels. I hung up a turtleneck/hoodie over it, 2 pairs of freshly laundered jeans, a lounge dress, put dirty clothes in the laundry basket, hung my robe up, and fixed the bed with DH. Now that everything's put away- which was my clutter-bug junk- our master bedroom looks pretty again. :mrgreen:

Need to dump trash from waste baskets next. :idea:

1) I decluttered an order I'd made the 26th, which they couldn't find in their system, they said it must not have gone through, so I cancelled the order. :!:
2) I decluttered a letter opener, which no longer worked correctly- into the garbage! :)
3) I decluttered all of our Christmas cards I Scotch taped onto the walk-in pantry door. :D Why save them for 2 - 3 years to declutter later? :?:

I received a b-day card today, my b-day's on Jan. 15, 2014, so I taped my very first b-day card on the pantry door. :mrgreen:


P. S. Took down all the wall calendars, put b-days on the main 1 in the dining room w/appt.'s, and have calendars by the slider door for DH to throw into the recycle bin when he steps outdoors for more firewood. :idea: It's nice to get things ready for 2014, a day or 2 early. :mrgreen:
