Subject: RE: BS: Declutterers March 2010 Like a Lion
I filled a big plastic bag with all sorts of cardboard boxes and bits that had been collected for the off chance they're needed to pack things for eBay. I think I can live without all of this stuff, and it makes the room look a lot better.

My kitchen is looking tidy now, and I'm looking for ways to store some things I don't use often without losing complete sight of them, so I forget they're around to be used. Maybe I need to pin lists on the inside doors of cupboards?

Overcast today. Amazing how much the mood can shift with a gray day if you've had more than your usual share for a while.

I'm getting ready to add more shelves in the hall closet to organize the stuff I plan to store in there. I need to find screws long enough to go through the shelf supports and dry wall into the studs. I know I have some around here, somewhere. They're stored in a couple of areas, and then there are those 'catch-all' jars where things that came out of packaging and don't have a box or bin of their own go. Leftovers from appliance installation, etc. I've been sorting and filing some of that stuff (those electrical wiring screw caps, and the expanders for putting screws in sheet rock, and hooks and such, all in a little multi-drawer bin thing.)
