How's your organizing going?

[lemondrop]

I'm just checking into this board for the first time. I used to be super organized to the point that not making my bed in the morning caused major anxiety. I'm no longer that way at all, which is both good and bad.

I'm currently working on getting organized but not anally so. We're also moving by the end of the summer. The new house will probably be smaller than our current one. So we really need to declutter.

So far this week DH has sold a lot of our superfluous furniture at work, and we're preparing for a garage sale on June 1st and 2nd. In the last year, I've donated probably the equivalent of two pickup beds of stuff to goodwill. It's a little embarrassing how much stuff I had.

What have you accomplished recently?

We are preparing for a June garage sale. But we've also sent a bunch of stuff to the Goodwill. In terms of organzing the best thing we've done lately is add storage to our attic. Now all of the things DD has outgrown, xmas supplies, old paperwork, etc are neatly store out of sight in there.

We haven't done much, had a garage sale last week and now I'm trying to sell everything left over on Craigslist.
We could be moving in 7 weeks though, so I really need to get my act together hah.

We recently bagged up 3 full-size garbage bags' worth of clothes and shoes to donate. I need to go drop them off soon. I also want to get all of our closets reorganized.

We're selling our larger things through work right now. Everything left over from the garage sale must be donated! (I'm serious this time.)

We just moved in Dec/Jan, so we donated a lot of things around that time. Lately, I have been going through each room in the house to find things we don't need/haven't used in a while since our neighborhood is having garage sales next Saturday.

We just got rid of a lot of stuff between our garage sale and donating to Habitat and Goodwill. I've already started another bag of Goodwill donations. It's neverending.

Mine's going better. I organized our laundry closet. I also posted some clothes I no longer want in a FB group. If they don't tell then next week I'm going to try and sell them to a consignment shop here.

Not very well! It's mainly just procrastinating!
