Eh. Toddler, still pandemic. Still excused in my book. 
But, also cool that you are getting to it now so life can be a little easier.

Thank you 
better late than never. Iâm just hoping this streamlines my life. I donât like being the Quartermaster for the family lol. I feel like Iâm the only one who knows where a lot of stuff is, and that is NOT husband and my dynamic classically.

My bathroom and the kids room are always calm functional spaces in my house, so i know weâre capable of âonly the things that fit may live hereâ even when the rest of the house doesnât show it

Itâs âdeal with our clothesâ day over here. Wish us luck!
My wife and I are switching our warm weather/cold weather clothes, and pulling out things to donate. I have been fairly and rightly kicked out of the room where my wife is organizing, because I have a disease and canât help but give organizing opinions.
My big goal is to to through my pile of unused and half used Sephora samples, and figure out what to give away or toss.

Kiddo went with Mr. Meer to the grocery store earlier, it was the first time in forever heâs done that so I unexpectedly had the house to myself and my first instinct was to clear the Halloween decorations out of his room that he had kidnapped, except I did that already last night when he was in the bath. Next time Iâll have to play Mission Impossible music for myself.

Haha yes I have all the Halloween stuff hidden in the guest room and I need to pack it away⌠sometime. Step 1. Get a container. 
This is what happens when your mother shows up with a. Trash bag worth of decor. Ifhhh w

Update: it took 90 minutes (!!) but I managed to organize my toiletries section of the closet and to deep clean the whole closet. It was gross! It felt like a not great use of time when I have more pressing projects, but Iâm telling myself that if it took that long, it really needed to happen.
My wife said that sheâs done reorganizing, so Iâm excited to see what sheâs done.
Oh and, you guys: we bought that spinny mop and bucket system that you see on TikTok. It works so well! My wife mopped our living room/dining nook/kitchen area, and the mop water was filthy afterwards. So satisfying! Iâve been using a swiffer or a microfiber pad that you stick to a swiffer-like stick, and it doesnât feel like it gets the floor as clean.
Next, Iâm going to try to multitask making soup and switching out my clothes.

Dragged some old curtains that came with the house out of the bottom of the closet and have someone coming to get those tomorrow. Pulled a massive bunch of clothes I had sorted out but had to hide in my closet (#toddlerlife) and threw them in a box for goodwill. Side decluttering bonus, running through Kroger curbside bags as I gift stuff.

Good? No. Done? Absolutely not. More functional that it WAS? And some trash gone? Yes. And that is a victory.

Another box of books gone, unsold cookbooks left on the dumpâs book swap tableâŚ
We went and added a few things to the booth and DH talked to a store where he has some items on consignmentâŚ

Cleaned out the accumulating work papers and folders, an inch of paper gone to recycling and 1 inch of folder space given back. Photos of a band I knew from 30 years ago and some old friends tossed from the filing cabinet. I found a contact page of photos of me I completely forgot about. I was so young! Keeping those for now.

Today my husband took the children out, and I stayed home to purge purge purge.
I have âsurface cleanedâ both of their rooms (ie, the obvious junk) and have four bags ready to go to the thrift pickup this Friday plus two garbage bags in the shed.
The kids are out of school due to strike at the moment, hopefully they can continue deep cleaning now that itâs started (they both have executive functioning challenges, the older especially, where they just donât see the mess).
End goal, it looks like we could be listing our house and moving in the new year

Are you sure 23 sweaters is excessive?

This child is a creature of habit, and probably wore only five of them regularly.
Weâre also on a few hand me down trains, which is how he ended up with so many.
And he canât keep his room Clean. Less sweaters = less having to put sweaters away.
Six of them were navy blue fleece. Full zip, half zip, and pullover.

Nearly everything ive listed on buy nothing has takers! Plus the lady who is getting the toddler scissors for her school, I asked if she has any other office supply needs- havenât decluttered there but happy to take requests, so weâll see. Pretty sure we have 1000 years of pens 
again, stuff thatâs contained and doesnât interfere with day to day life. But as the minimalist mom says âeverything you own is asking something of youâ. Trying to lighten that baseline load and see if it frees up some mental energy and reduces some stress.

Put a bag on buy nothing called âAll the clothes cleaned out of my 5-year old daughter and 3-year old sonâs closet (so they are sizes smaller than those)â
Had a taker who basically takes anything he can get and redistributes in a local refugee community he is a part of. (I think he might resell some of it, but I donât care; it is out of my house.)
I love when I donât need to bother listing individually.

Itâs kinda hilarious. We had a warm late fall and now itâs cold and rainy. Buy nothing is HOPPIN everyone is hiding inside decluttering apparently.
