I have a lot of goals ahead of me for this year. I have a lot of things that I want to get done, and that I need to get done. My home does need decluttering, as does my heart. I have been watching several bloggers who are focusing on decluttering their homes going systematicly through different areas of their house each day. I want to have the time to do a little something each and every day. The truth is I have not managed to work that way.
Since the year has started I have managed to declutter one room. It was rather convient because we were taking down the Christmas tree and decorations. I could see there was a lot of cleaning that needed to get done in that room. I was also reading through The Nesting Place at the time. So I took a day and completely rearranged my Living Room space. This is the room a week later. Yes, there is stuff that needs to be picked up, and the walls need to be painted, but this room is much more organized this week than it was ten days ago.

I will probably never win awards for home decor. That is simply not something I am skilled at, but we have a room where my kids can be cozy, relaxed and enjoy themselves as they go about their daily schedule. Mostly what I managed to do in this room is to move the massive couch that we have, and clean all the clutter and junk that gathers under the couch. I also cleaned off a few table surfaces and put a few things away.
Are you decluttering this year? Is it going the way you envisioned it would? It has not be for me. I envisioned I would get done a small decluttering each and every day. I have been too busy to keep up with all that I want to be doing.
What are your plans? How have you moved forward in your goals this week?
