I'm a tuckered pup. I'm still dealing with cleaning little by little upstairs. I'm at the "worse before it gets better" stage AKA "where do I start? How about nowhere and I shut the door and pretend it doesn't exist?"
But enough of my clutterdome, let's get to...

I'm noticing a sharp drop in pageviews for Fridays. Let me know if this is something you still care to see or not or if everyone just drops off the Earth come Friday.

I definitely like reading your Friday links and appreciate all the work you put into it. But I'd be curious to see what other readers might prefer to see. I hope you get some good feedback.
ReplyDeleteReading this post is my second favorite thing about Fridays! Please don't stop posting! I love to see things on here that I've noticed myself during the week, but especially love the great things I missed that you post - they are so interesting! Makes my day.
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great blog,

I am knee deep in de-cluttering my mother's home while she is in the hospital and am right where you are - it looks way worse than when I started. But I know there are some things that have been accomplished (like items have been grouped together, filing has been done) and it will get better when I put everything back in it's new organized place. Shutting the door has crossed my mind also.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy your Friday posts! Always find something interesting, sometimes funny, sometimes informative.
De-cluttering is a constant in my house. Little piles become big piles and rooms that don't get used that much get more crowded even though I say I won't just drop stop off. The problem is I don't have a lot of storage space so I have bins upon bins that have nowhere to go. Anywho, weekend is a meeting in the morning, then housework because the hubs has to work. I'm reading a really good book so I'll reward my efforts with getting lost in those pages. Then Sunday early morning is breakfast with a friend, then grocery shopping. I'm not on-call this weekend so I feel a wee bit more free. it was a very stressful week at the land of the douchebags so I'm looking forward to two days away from there.
ReplyDeleteI read the links I think sound interesting, but I don't generally comment. The theme of my summer is decluttering. Once I get my kitchen back together, I'll be working on the rest of the house.
