I think she means plans like, "throw out one thing a day". She said she cant remember to do that after the first couple of days! she's like, do it now, or people will do it after you die anyway! Really shes a bit of a crackup. There is no way i could do everything in one day, and i will probably want to switch sides of my apartment - bed / bookcase - that i might not do this winter, maybe next winter, but if i can get my clothes closet and drawers supporting an exercising lifestyle this spring and summer, i will be happy. Heck shes young - she has no idea what we are dealing with!! Well maybe she does, but...

Anyway, i did find the book inspiring and insightful. I like how she says that things will tell you how they want to be stored. When i was working, i used to tell people that projects told me how they wanted to be documented - you didnt need to use ALL the forms, the right ones would jump out at you. They looked at me like i was crazy. Well, she is the same kind of crazy. Things talk to her!
Thanks for this!
