Decluttering is so nice!

Happy Tuesday, y’all!

I did Declutter Like a Mother 2022 challenge with Allie Casazza last week. Today we dropped off the donate pile; it felt so good. It was three small boxes of things, but I could feel the difference. So much lighter.

As a homeschooling mother to two young boys, I struggle with clutter. Our house is clean but oh-so cluttered in certain areas (the schoolroom and bedrooms). It really affects my mood and drains my time.

Life happened, whether an illness, a busy schedule, or something else. And somewhere along the way, my systems and orderly home became a big ol’ mess. I didn’t have time to go through old bills, toss or rehome finished curricula, or donate things that weren’t used.

I appreciate all we’ve been given from family members and friends. I’ve attached a tremendous amount of guilt to the thought of parting with any of it.

So, I joined the DLAM challenge and it helped. It’s nice to walk by freshly decluttered parts of your home. They feel breathable and welcoming.

I didn’t sign up for Your Uncluttered Home this go-round; we’re also budgeting like a Ramsey. But I did grab Allie’s book on Audible. 

I know this will help with my writing, teaching, chores, morning/night routines, etc. I can’t wait to dig in and get more of our home decluttered! 

Anyways, I hope you have a beautiful day. I’ll get back to writing about writing soon.  

God bless,
