[QUOTE="Lil, post: 745206, member: 17309"] I agree completely! Those of us trying to simplify and declutter our homes and our lives need all the help and encouragement we can get! I have been planning to make myself do the 10/15 minute a night thing that all the websites talk about. Pick one area and work on it for a set number of minutes, even if it's a drawer or a table or a counter....but I haven't been up for it. I think going back to work after the 4 day weekend sapped my strength! I've been just exhausted when I get home. But I'm going to keep trying. Tiny victory. Jabber and I (finally) hung up our coats and sweaters etc., in our coat closet right before Christmas - as opposed to them being on the back of the dining room chairs and over stair railings, etc. The closet's in the stairwell by the front door and there's no space for a table or anything, so it's really not that convenient when your hands are full, but we've made a serious effort to keep the coats where they belong! It means a second trip up and down the stairs after we've deposited our bags, etc., but we've done it for a couple of weeks now. That's a huge thing for us. In winter, our coats are usually all over the place. That alone makes the dining room look so much less cluttered. [/QUOTE]
