So we will take this opportunity to declutter, and pare down.<br /><br />I'm excited. I love that feeling of peace when a room has well, room to breathe!<br /><br />DeannaDeanna Rabe - Creekside Cottage Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16133684514103206137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-43675231246889415482014-03-03T08:51:25.440-05:002014-03-03T08:51:25.440-05:00Lately- I pass things at resale shop- telling my s...Lately- I pass things at resale shop- telling my self- you really don't need that- no place for it.

We have guests coming next week again, so I need to organize it pronto. I agree, clutter is depressing. When I'm feeling overwhelmed I set a timer for say, a half hour, and just do some every day. It's manageable then, and before you know it, you've accomplished a lot.Deborah Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04366855994841922862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-7539781467723446122014-03-02T18:46:57.964-05:002014-03-02T18:46:57.964-05:00Well, if you could see my "craft room" y...Well, if you could see my "craft room" you'd probably faint! It really needs a major over-haul! But you are so right about squelching creativity. I haven't done much creating in there lately, because I'd have to rearrange all my piles to make room to work! Ok, you've inspired me to really do some serious Spring cleaning! This could take a while!<br />Now, I just need the energy! Thanks for the inspiration.<br />Blessings,<br />Laura C. from WA<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32960314.post-80420404859024234012014-03-02T18:03:29.926-05:002014-03-02T18:03:29.926-05:00Hi Brenda;

Oh my. Yes, well, my excuse has been that I can't get rid of this or that, it's followed by I don't feel well enough to tackle all the hauling and toting involved. Fact is, a little at a time is how I accomplish most things and this is a chore that never ends and it especially never ends if one never does it. Sigh.

My pantry, fridge and all my supplies are "filed" on shelves like grocery store shelves. <br />Organization is a blessing.
