I love my new job and I look forward to going there every single day! But I just don't want to go today!
For the past week I've been on a decluttering mission and have been going through cupboards and drawers getting rid of "stuff".... all kinds of stuff! And I'm enjoying seeing the results!
My kitchen is about 95% finished. I can't reach the top shelves of the cupboards, or the top of the cupboards where I have some things I want to get rid of. I do have a metal step ladder, but I'm afraid to stand on it because of my balance issues. So that stuff will have to wait.
My linen closet is nearly done too. I did a precursory run through and threw some stuff out and put some other stuff in the charity box. I just have to straighten out a shelf with the remaining stuff. The linen shelf is nice and tidy.
Last night I started on the bedroom closet and made good progress. I did a bit more this morning and have a pile of folded, ready to bag clothes sitting on my bed. My goal is to empty out at least 1/2 of the bedroom closet. Granted, 3/4 of what will be remaining will still be too small to fit me, but at least they are in a more reasonable size that I can grow down into them and not have to buy more as I go down a few sizes.
I'm actually having fun getting rid of stuff! It's such a freeing experience. I feel like I'm letting go of baggage!!
Hopefully I'll be done by Friday, because this weekend I want to spend some time using my new bread machine and slow cooker. I've been holding off trying them out because I didn't want to get side tracked.
