So did you try flylady? I've tried to do that, but I always wind up unsubscribing from the emails -- too many to keep up with! Congrats on all your progress and the no ordering out resolution (so tempting at this time of year).

Musicjunkie, I hope you got two of your totes sorted. We still haven't finished taking care of all the stuff from when the basement sort of flooded -- my patio is covered with stuff I dragged out and the living room is still pretty full, now with all my camping gear.

Eskielover, your home renovation projects remind me of mine. I get started and then just don't get back to it for years -- it's amazing how easy it is to live with these unfinished projects and not 'notice' them. I hope you got a break in the rain to mow the grass.

It has been a bad few weeks for decluttering/cleaning for me. We finally went camping and the weather has been nice for foraging. A neighbor passed away which left me feeling kind of depressed, and half my family has birthdays in the last part of this month. I've spent the past couple of days trying to save seeds and preserve my harvest. You would not believe the dishes that creates...

I do hope to get the living room straightened out today. Rain seems imminent, so no jaunting off for a hike instead... although maybe I could squeeze one in before it starts... hmmm...
