Update on Clearing the Clutter and a Few Thoughts at FreshBlogger

Update on Clearing the Clutter and a Few Thoughts

8 Comments Published August 26th, 2009 in life, organizing

In my last post, I talked about the trials of our recent move and attempts at getting things organized. Unfortunately, we weren’t as successful at clearing away the clutter as we had hoped to be. The family room got some needed attention, but due to a longer than expected trip to the store, we weren’t able to clear out the entire room. A line of boxes remains underneath the counter that is depressing to look at, to say the least!

The good thing is that we did make some noticeable progress. Our new place is definitely more organized than it was a week ago. It also looks a lot better than our last apartment looked a few weeks after moving in. I think we had to weave our way through mountains of stacked boxes and extra furniture for a couple of months. This was because of a merger between my wife’s stuff and my own, but thankfully, that only had to occur once.

This move was a refresher on some important lessons. I’m thinking of a few things that I’ll be posting about shortly. Thanks to those who left comments on my last post. I’ll be back!

It’s a great thing that you made some developments in clearing the clutter in your home. Was it a hard and tedious task?

Hi Kirk – Yep. We’ve made some progress, but there’s always much more to do. It’s good to be busy, though, as it generally means you’re productive. I think there’s a post in that idea…

Hi Grad School – Yes, it was a a lot of effort to get started, but a little easier once in motion. I’m thinking of a new post right now to talk a little bit about that. Thanks for commenting!
