Welcome to Week 39 of the 52-Week Decluttering Challenge. This week, we’re decluttering miscellaneous clothing items that we skipped in our earlier closet decluttering. Our decluttering task for this week includes sleepwear, socks, underwear, swimwear, and athletic wear.
Decluttering challenge – Week 38 – Save Your Photos Day
The last Saturday in September is Save Your Photos Day, a day to educate people about ways to organize, share and protect their memories. Week 38 in the 52-Week Decluttering Challenge is all about organizing our photos and preserving our priceless family memories.
Decluttering challenge – Week 37 – Digital Files
“Out of sight, Out of mind”. It’s an expression we’ve all heard many times. As I continue digital decluttering in the 52-Week Decluttering Challenge, I’m finding this to be true when it comes to the files we store on our computers and other devices. This week, I’m decluttering and organizing digital files and folders.
Decluttering challenge – Week 36 – Apps and software
Do you have unused software and apps cluttering up your devices? If you do, you’re in the right place! In week 36 of the 52-Week Decluttering Challenge, we continue with digital decluttering. This week, we’ll simplify our lives by decluttering unused apps and software.
Decluttering challenge – Week 35 – Email cleanup
When we think of clutter, it’s easy to focus only on what we can see. But there’s a different kind of clutter that can be just as distracting as visible clutter. This month, we turn our attention in the 52-Week Decluttering Challenge to digital clutter, starting this week with an email cleanup.
Decluttering challenge – Week 34 – Outdoor toys and kids’ playhouse
Are there places inside or outside your home that you haven’t ventured into in years? In week 34 of the 52-Week Decluttering Challenge, we’re tackling one of those areas. It’s time for the long-overdue task of decluttering outdoor toys in our kids’ playhouse.
Decluttering challenge – Week 33 – Important documents and emergency binder
If you lost your wallet, how easily could you identify and replace everything in it? How quickly could you find your birth certificate or other important papers? In week 33 of the 52-Week Decluttering Challenge, we’re taking on the critical task of organizing important documents. We’ll also put together an emergency binder so we, or our loved ones, can easily find things in case of an emergency.
Decluttering challenge – Week 32 – Paper files & filing cabinets
It’s week 32 of the 52-Week Decluttering Challenge. Last week, we made a start on our home office by clearing out our desk drawers and office supplies. This week, we continue that work by decluttering paper files and filing cabinets.
Clutter Tales – The podcast edition
I recently had the opportunity to record an episode of the Sharing the Heart of the Matter with the wonderul Wynne Leon and Vicki Atkinson. In the episode, I shared some of the fun stories from my Clutter Tales series.
Decluttering challenge – Week 31 – Desk drawers & office supplies
For many people, the shift to full-time home working in 2020 introduced big changes to their household. As a hybrid worker before we even gave that a name, I was fortunate to have a well-established home office space. For me, the disruption was minimal. Even so, home office decluttering and organizing is never a bad idea. That’s this week’s focus in the 52-Week Decluttering Challenge.
