52-Week Challenge

Decluttering challenge – Week 44 – Take a break! Tomorrow is Zero Tasking Day!

The first Sunday of November is Zero Tasking Day. It’s also the day most people in Canada and the United States “fall back” to standard time, giving us an extra hour in our weekend.

We could squeeze an extra decluttering task into that hour, but we’re actually ahead of schedule on our decluttering checklist. To celebrate, our decluttering task for week 44 in the 52-Week Decluttering Challenge is … nothing!
