Day 1 & 2

A year to clear what is holding you back

Someone in a declutter support group posted about this online book\class.  I read the synopsis vand was intrigued.  It looks at the spirituality in your life.

I took the bait and bought the class.  The two lessons I have received this far,are more about what I will achieve and less about getting me there.  Not impressed yet.  I am going to give it the 10 days and hopefully, it will come around.

Now, I am not going to let that hold me back from cleaning and decluttering.  My lovely children received so many books and clothes that my goal of the day is to get them put away while decluttering the old.

I do have to ask, does anyone else have a problem with the children always switching sizes?  I hate going thru clothes on an average of every 6 months.  :)

Introductory Post

Today, starts a new day for myself and my family.  I am drowning in stuff, physical and emotional.  I have tried to take control of my life, yet I have failed.  I live in a small 1200 sq. Ft home with my husband, the pack rat, 2 daughters both in preschool, 2 dogs, a cat and a fish.  My house is also falling apart literally.  I am praying that the porch survives winter, so we do not lose my girls bedroom.   Although, that is not what brings me here today.

I am here today, to rise up and take a stand.  A stand to get my life back.  My 3 goals in 2016 - declutter my house, reduce my weight and become happy again.

I have started weight watchers and joined a 365 day class to declutter my house.  My chi!dren are helping and to reward them, I am starting on their room :) yay!

This is my personal place to unwind my thoughts, share in my successes and vent when things don't go the right way.  I hope I can keep up with this and really see how far I have come in one years time.

To a happy wife, happy life
