    Clutter...

    I don't like it out in the open space's where you can see it, but I have TONS of it in my closets
    Since we no longer have a basement, and the attic and garage are filled to the brim (that's where my clutter FIRST started going ) the closets are now my "catch all". Literally everything gets put in one closet or another.

    I'm planning on having a big yard sale and getting rid of everything I no longer want, need or have any use for.
    Anyone want any new Barbi's in boxes? How about 30+ Disney Videos? I started collecting with the hopes of having kids but looks like we've passed that and now I have all this "stuff" and nothing to do do with it!

    So yeah, I do hate clutter...but I have plenty

    Any of you have digital cable? Discovery Home and FITTV carry a program called "Neat". Each 30minute program starts with a cluttered room and a disorganized person or two and ends up with the perfect room and lots of ideas how to be Neat. I've learned lots especially how to be ruthless with possessions.

    *Mission Organization* on HGTV is another good one, as is *Clean Sweep* on TLC. I really enjoy these programs for in the input and pure inspiration.
    Peter Walsh on Clean Sweep is my hero. His advice to folks who are overwelmed with their stuff is therapeautic, and he really helps them to *let go*.

    I hate hate hate clutter but I live in a small house with pets & people so I kind of have to deal with it to a certain extent.
    There are some things that I do keep and don't know why but there is a LOT that I throw away and don't know why because I always need it after I throw it away. lol
    Then there's Joe, I don't know why he keeps some the stuff that he does. lol

    If I had one more room &/or a baseent &/or a bigger garage I would be in clutter free heaven!
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.

    Robilee, I will share with you wisdom passed from the major-league pack-rat, my Great Aunt Bertha, from whom we bought our house. She called me one day, about a year after Paul and I got married, to say, "Karen, start throwing things away NOW! Don't wait until your doctor tells you that you cannot do stairs more than once a day!"

    I have to resist the pack rat gene I inherited from my Dad! A few times a year I "commit a neatness" and file away all the random paperwork, etc. that accumulates on the drum table.
