I no longer believe "I" can work on a severe cluttered area during a week of focus - I find the focus time works well in keeping up with areas that have been thoroughly de-cluttered before.


blessed, I see your point. Some areas may be so cluttered that focus rotations don't offer enough time to accomplish what we'd like to do. A garage is really big, space-wise, after all, and if it hasn't been in the rotation on-along, that makes it even more of a challenge. Perhaps you could look at it in sections and give yourself a big pat on the back for just one section done each time? Btw, what you are saying reminds me of our storage barn. I rely on dstepson and HRH to deal with that BUT since I'm the one who can make decisions on some things, sometimes I feel I'm letting that space down.

I am going to use this d Harriet. Great idea.. I will even pat myself on the back :D

I had to work on the file/desk job consistently because the job was massive and it needed to be done before taxes.

I find the house seems to be okay with the focus but this job, as big as it is, needs a bit of daily focus (except for weekends). I also am doing this because dejunking and organizing dh's stuff causes him tremendous amounts of stress - he plans on doing it but that is code for "I don't want to deal with it - it's too much". I will clean it respectfully. He likes when it's done as long as it doesn't cause him to notice or cause him stress.

it's really bad out there - I am going to do the sections.. thanks so much for the idea!

job 1 for the garage... dh's large collection of nails, screws, and misc. that is all mixed up. Goal: separate, (I bought a separator drawer for such items), mark with what they are so dh doesn't go back to tossing things into misc. drawers
