Good morning WITers! Nael_C, Great work at getting your house so tidy! ta-da: Meds to cat, scratch grains to chickens, realized I forgot to fill their water last night, so did that too. Trash out to road. I didn't get quite as much out this week as I intended, but some out is better than none out. Breakfast to-do: Sip on tea I think the dishwasher will be full enough to run Continue decluttering entry/livingroom/diningroom

ta-da: Spent a bit of time tidying up the kitchen, loading the dishwasher (will run it after lunch) Spent time sorting through a pile. It's slow going and then I realized I need to be a bit more ruthless. I tend to overanalyze every little thing, and think of the best way to get rid of it, donate it whatever, which leads to decision fatigue, anyway I did shred some papers, throw a few things out, and put a few things away. A few weeks ago I realized that it's not reasonable for me to try to get rid of these things perfectly.
Perfection is the enemy of good enough
to-do: Continue to sort through mess CLA mediation meeting in an hour

Thanks a lot Ally! And I agree, perfection is the enemy of good enough! I must remember this!
Done ~Went for a manicure, as one of my nails broke and it was killing me. Not only the kind woman fixed it, but now my nails look amazing. ~Cooked us a nice meal. ~Hang the washed clothes outside to dry. I don't know what else I will do today, but will update in the evening. Another load of laundry for sure, as I need to catch up and one is not enough in this house, ha ha.

Oh no DustyD, it's too early for an invasion of ants! ta-da: After eating lunch, I added a couple more dishes to the dishwasher then started it Then I started on working on boxes in the entry way. These boxes have been there for a decade or more. I found a few things to donate, and threw them into the washing machine on a gentle cycle. One is a youth flotation vest, that hasn't been used in probably 20 years, another item was an old dog leash. We haven't had a dog in at least 12-13 years. Both items are still in very good condition, but just needed to be tidied up. Finished emptying one box which was started earlier, and another box started after lunch. (There were a few things that were set aside to go through later.) to-do: Pack up my lunch for tomorrow Continue on with the dishes and the laundry Onward!

Got rid of one box. I've done enough decluttering the last couple of weeks that I was able to consolidate. Decluttered a few very easy things from the decrepit box. There's a lot more from that that also should be easy. Put away dishes. Prep some food for snacks and meal components. Tomorrow's errands (delayed again): library (printing out only), bank, post office
