I have long had a basket on a side table for my keys and important current papers, etc. Well yesterday, I had to find a current-need paper in a hurry, so I dumped out the basket onto my DR table, grabbed the paper and ran out the door. And I came back and...oh, HERE'S a concept ...I PUT THE STUFF BACK IN THE BASKET AND GOT IT OFF THE TABLE. Geez, how that works....
And when I woke up this morning, I half expected to look toward the table and see the stuff I dumped out. (I was half asleep yet, but it's amazing how this stuff gnaws at your psyche so much that what you do when you're awake is ingrained when you sleep.) So I looked in that direction, thinking, "Yeah, gotta pick up those papers. Keep the table clean keep the table clean keep the table clean." And I looked over there and the table was ALREADY cleaned off again. -

Anyway, for the last week, I've been dozing off on the couch at night. And when I wake up, and stand up, the first thing I notice is that everything around me IS CLEAN. I can't even tell you what a wonderful feeling that is...patrolling those hot spots like mad. -

The good news: Everything that was decluttered is staying that way.
The bad news: Between a sudden death of a friend this week, the heat, and a lot of other things to get done, things are going veryyyyy slowly in cleaning out the bedroom. My impatience and frustration are getting the best of me. Paper is slowwwwwwwwww as molasses to go through,and even a quick sort would literally take me a day or two.
Ugh.
