With much of the country sheltering and in social distancing lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic, there’s no better time to tackle those high-frequency clutter spots in your home with a 30 day clutter clean out!
Oh Hey!!
Happy Monday….
Or is it Wednesday?…or Friday?…
Oh heck, I really don’t know!!
Am I the only one who feels like each day of the Covid quarantine/lockdown/sheltering seems to melt into the next??
If I’m being completely honest, the first few weeks of being isolated were not too bad…
I slept in, did jigsaw puzzles, read books, caught up on all the Hollywood gossip from Star Magazine, watched way too much reality tv and pretty much was a slug for an extended period of time, but now that I’ve maxed out my total self-indulgence time, I realize I need HELP…
I need some structure…
I need some projects….
I need something that makes me feel productive…
I need a reason to get out of bed in the morning…
And let’s be real, there ain’t much going on as far as external responsibilities go, so it’s up to ME to motivate myself!
So that’s why I created the 30 Day Clutter Clean Out…
I can’t think of a better time to focus on what I want IN my life by letting go of everything that I want OUT of my life.
I started thinking about decluttering and organizing projects around my house that are mostly “fun-sized” so I can do them in one day!
I also tried to choose areas that seem to be the most disorganized right now in my home, and if I were a betting woman, they are probably high-frequency clutter spots for you too!
Because life is SOOO topsy-turvy right now, I wasn’t sure what order I wanted to tackle each project so I created a flexible schedule that can be done in any order depending on my mood each day!
So for the month of April, I’m going to be participating in The 30 Day Clutter Clean Out.
