Busy Decluttering

My days are keeping me busy as I am getting into sorting and cleaning things.
I alternate between physical things, paperwork, and what's on the computer.  That way I'm not wearing myself out and my brain doesn't have to disappear into la-la land from too much concentration!

Some of the paperwork stuff I haven't done for a long time.
For example,  I haven't updated my address book since 2013 (it was something I used to do every year).

It feels good to be getting things sorted out.
I hope everyone is staying safe and happy.

  1. Oh heck! Our old address book ... you remember the paper one with the alphabet down the side ... hasn't been updated in about 25 years! The ones on our phones are accurate, and I even put a note about the date I change anything, but the physical book!! Oh My Gosh!

    Well done you, sorting and decluttering. It is a constant problem here. And I'm loosing the battle!

  2. Good to get all those tings up to date. I find there are never enough hours in the day.

  3. I think I need to learn some of your moderation. Administration is something I put off for way too long (I have a file in my filing cabinet labelled 'needs filing' and when it can't take any more I have to gird my loins and spend a whole day sorting out the mess.) Your plan for little and often makes better sense but I procrastinate.

  4. Getting rid of things we either don't use or don't want any more is rewarding. Organizing is something I like to do. Unfortunately in my zeal I seem to have donated some of my favourite books. I must have because they're nowhere to be found.

  5. It's so good to get organized, there is such a freedom in it. I'm trying to take steps to get some of the things that I've been putting off, finally done. One step at a time.

  6. I am always glad to get rid of a few things...though the move made me get rid of a more than I would have normally. It is sort of freeing once it is done.

  8. That’s terrific! You reminded me I need to clean off my (ancient) pc and save some things before it’s too late. Thanks!

  9. It is a good feeling when you have decluttered. In one of our closets I had several bags of clothes that I had brought unsorted when we moved out of our house almost 3 years ago. Some days ago I sorted it out and got rid of two bags to the thrift store :)
