The ALL-YEAR-ROUND job of DECLUTTERING and CLEANING our homes is daunting. Especially for those of us who HOARD, or struggle with depression, and decisions, anxiety & other MI. I'm so challenged in this way so reaching out for support. Maybe start an Declutterers Army 💪
If you suffer the same challenge or have some great suggestions - type away... 💙💜💙💜💙💜💙

Hey @Former-Member - so very proud and impressed by your efforts. You've been working like a trooper at your own place only to be confronted by more and probably worse at your parents' home. I guess decluttering yourself was just practice for what you are doing now.
Am loving your positive attitude of getting through and getting those jobs done. Make sure to take care of yourself. You deserve a reward or two.
Seems like you are managing the family stuff really well. Hope they all appreciate the work you have put in.
Congrats on becoming a grandmother to two little finchlets. They must be happy birds to produce offspring like that. New life - so lovely - bet you can't wait to see them.
And wonderful news that your son is progressing with his newfound career. Hope its onwards and upwards for him.
You'll need a holiday after all this is over. Sometimes when confronted by a massive amount of stuff, we just run on adrenaline then crash afterwards. Try to take it easy every now and then.
Thinking of you often and thanks for keeping us in the loop.

@Former-Member You are an inspiration.
Dont ever change, but do wear shoes that are kind to your feet.
I am going to do some work on my declutter issues today. Mostly paperwork.
