Combating Clutter

I have spent the past week or so fighting the clutter bug!  Actually it started last month when I invited (paid) 1-800-GOT-JUNK to my home for a major clean up.  They hauled away 3/4 of a truck load worth of junk.  Much of this mess can be attributed to my son, who moved away and left me with much of his gaming horde.  But with three room cleared, my home took on a new life. 

With such a large load cleared, I have been tackling smaller jobs.  Last week my DD helped me clear much of the stuff from my closet.  It almost echoes in there now.  We also purged the bookcase in my room.  With e-books, I no longed feel the need to hang on to most books.  I held on to the few books that cannot be downloaded.  That took up one shelf.  The bottom shelf is for my notebooks. 

Today, I will continue to climb the mountains of paper.  It is a daunting task, but I will succeed!
