Applied for a new job this morning that is closer to home. I currently drive 65 miles each way and the new job would be about 20 miles each way. My only concern is the 12 hour rotating shifts and...

Got a new phone and Otterbox case that came with an accessory so you can carry your phone on your belt. Will never use that so it's going.

They ended up coming on Saturday. Found out the first Friday they missed was because the driver has a "favorite" truck and it was broken down and he didn't want to take the other one. So instead he...

Even with less decor out, by Jan 1st, I was feeling overwhelmed by everything so I was happy to put all the Christmas stuff away. I decorated for Winter and the house feels much more calming and...

Watched a decluttering video on YouTube and caught the bug so I did a quick sweep around the house.

One sleeping bag
Two cloth napkins
One dish towel
Two of my shirts
Four of my husband's...

Tomorrow will mark two Fridays since our trash company has picked up everyone's trash. My can is full and bags are having to be stacked on top like a game of Tetris. I really hope it get picks up...

Got rid of all of last year's bills except December's.
A plunger that I can't tell you how long we've had. Finally got a new one that is actually made for toilets. Other one was for sinks but used...

Last declutter of 2024...
Bag of silver Christmas ball ornaments
Four shepherd hooks

Haven't done it yet but pretty sure the two inflatables will be going as well.

Bag of fairy lights that didn't have long battery life. Surprisingly one of my gnomes I got from Etsy. I love this women's gnomes but as soon as I bought it, I realized I didn't really need another...

My husband has 4 and they are the loves of his life. 78 Trans Am that he bought when he was 18. He is almost 60 now. Can't remember the years of the others but he also has a Cyclone, Super Bee, and a...

Yep, fresh cut is important. Bottom closes up after it's cut so it needs to be recut once bought. I also have to cut off some of the bottom branches to make sure the bottom of the tree is far enough...

I have never had a tree dry out and I buy mine right at the beginning of December and don't take it down until Jan 1st. I put a little sugar in the water when I first get the tree and then plain warm...

Only one Christmas gift will be donated this year. Two stone bath mats. Mom thought I would like them and I do not. Even my 23 year old said that they don't feel as nice as having a fuzzy bath mat to...

The new job was a bust but the "more minimal" Christmas decorating was a success!!

The job ended up being a decrease in pay by almost $5000. Decided to start looking for a job closer to home...

Decorated for Christmas and decided to declutter a few items. A table centerpiece, glittery letters that spell out JOY, four tiered tray pieces, a metal Christmas tree, and an animatronic angel....

One of those large laundry hampers with the 3 bags that you can separate laundry into whites, darks, and ??? (I never did figure out the third one). First had it in my bedroom and then in the laundry...

Water jug that has no lid and a watering can.

Change of plans... sort of. 99% sure I will have a new job shortly. They have pretty much guaranteed me it but had to go through the motions of advertising it and accepting applications. If I do get...

After looking at a little tiered tray sign that I had on a little decorative cart filled with pines cones, I decided I really didn't like it so it got decluttered and I put the pumpkin sign it came...

I have some Fall, Halloween, and Thanksgiving decor in a bin together. I was getting out my Thanksgiving stuff and making room to put in the Halloween stuff and came across a strand of fake leaves...

I don't want to go as minimal as some of you :) but do want to tone it down a little. I still want our house to feel like Christmas and I do enjoy looking at the decor (as do my family). Just not as...

I am a seasonal decor addict. I love to decorate for every season and holiday. I have slowly decluttered a bunch of decor over the years but Christmas is always hard for me. I tend to go overboard...

Did a quick declutter today which netted a few items.

Six Feliway cat diffusers.
Three file folders
Three and a half tiered tray stands
Four paper bags
And some random trash

Decorated the inside for Halloween and got a small declutter pile. Set of orange lights that don't work. A small pumpkin that wasn't used in Fall or Halloween decorating. Part of a tiered tray decor...
