KOTC - my bedroom

KOTC = Kick Out The Clutter

This week I worked on my bedroom. I figured this was a good room to start with, as I could get it done fairly easily, plus it's my sanctuary at the end of the day. I usually sit and read in bed before going to sleep.

Here's what I did this week:

- did all the laundry, including folding and putting most of it away. I say most because my husband has a ridonkulous amount of clothes and so there are 2 stacks of folded sweatshirts and shirts on the blanket chest. Hopefully I can figure somewhere to put them.

- cleaned and re-organized the bookshelf.

- dusted everything, including the ceiling fan

- cleaned and vacuumed the entire floor, including under the bed. there is NOTHING under the bed now, except for the box of gift wrap. :D

- went through my clothes and filled a bag for Goodwill.

- cleaned out my nightstand.

see? I have a stack of books to take to Half Price Books, a bag of clothes for Goodwill (already gone), a bag of blankets/sheets for the Humane Society, and a bag of garbage (also gone).

I am stalking all you de-clutter girls. LOL. I just came from Rowenta. Great job you did. I have a suggestion though if you haven't made it to half price books yet. Think about selling your books on ebay. I have been doing that and getting good fast money. The buyer pays the shipping.

Don't you feel sooooo good now! But I don't think that means you're supposed to refill those empty spots.

oh, I love Half Price Books! There are some in the Dallas area where we use to live and there is one in Mesa, AZ near where we live now. However, if I don't think I will get much money then I tend to donate to the Friends of the Library. (just a thought)
You go girl!!
