November 12 I have been able to focus on dejunking because it is just dh and myself right now. It's better now then when it gets crazy again. I couldn't have done this without my other responsibilities were temporarily diminished or this site to keep me focused.
I am in the linen closet (everything closet)
I know you are supposed to look at a space and see what I really want it to be:
so... I want the one area to be towels
, and laundry baskets for towels
- other part blankets
, photos only spot
, sheets that match, comforters, extra's for soaps etc. for upstairs, travel things
, suit cases
, gym bag
dh put new shelves up and what a difference it has made.
I have all of our sheets separated to the person they belong to.
More work to be done tomorrow: pull the curtain hangers together and toss the extra and other put away
tossed 2 black garbage bags of towels that were overly rough, torn, or no edges... why I kept them.. worry that I would run out of clean towels. honestly we never touched the bottom ones - I can't double doubt myself and put myself down because I didn't do this earlier - 3:43 ANOTHER BAG GONE OF JUNK- unnecessary for living today, 5:00 another garbage bag gone of blankets etc. that no longer are presentable I now have just a towel closet only with 2 laundry baskets on the bottom for family's dirty towels and misc. (It needs to dry still from the leak and needs mold spray and paint but that will not happen until february. most wood pulled. I almost feel grown up.
I can actually have others go into the closet to get pillows, blankets and comforters without being embarrassed - same with the towels.
