Hubby Decluttered! (And the Final Decluttering Party Week!)

January 30, 2014 By Dana White 21 Comments

Photo - Hubby Decluttered! at ASlobComesClean.com

So here’s what (sometimes) happens when you start decluttering: Other people in the house get the bug too.

I’m kind of sortof cheating on this post. It has been a crazy week, and I’ve actually been away from home, so I didn’t get any decluttering done.

So I’m posting this from last week. Remember how we worked on the kids’ rooms? Well, while we were doing that, Hubby decided to go through his stuff.

Including . . . some of the very t-shirts that I’ve put in the trash before, only to have him pull them back out!!!

When he came to find me to ask what I thought he should do with these shirts that he “never really wears anymore” and that had “holes in them” . . . I kept a straight face and said, “Honestly, sweetie, I think you should get rid of them.”

I nodded with understanding and tried to look as if I shared his inner turmoil.

I waited until after he left the room to do my happy dance!!

So I’m sharing that as this week’s decluttering report.

(Besides, Hubby claims it’s good for blog traffic when I show his picture.)

How was your week? I’d love to hear your decluttering adventures (or frustrations) in the comments, or you can link to a post on your blog that shares a decluttering project.

I’d also love to know if you would like to continue these decluttering link-ups on a monthly basis?

Little Decisions

January 29, 2014 By Dana White 15 Comments

I consider myself a Master Declutterer because I have to do it so much. I have to do it so much because I’m also a Master Reclutterer. Hubby claims our room is a science fiction phenomenon. It’s like when you shoot down and destroy everything in a video game. It’s gone, the space is clear […]

3 Ways to Declutter Ripped or Stained Clothing

January 28, 2014 By Dana White 25 Comments

Sometimes the MOST obvious things can be the hardest. Oh how my heart sang when Hubby decided it was time to get rid of this hole-ey t-shirt. But then came the question, “What do we do with it?” It feels weird to throw fabric in the trash. (Though I’m not against that.) But it also […]

Two Second Task – New Drawer Pulls

January 27, 2014 By Dana White 7 Comments

I haven’t posted a two second task in a while. I have to post this one. OH my word, how irritated I get with myself for putting off such SIMPLE things. Simple things that make a huge difference. This dresser was mine as a child. When I was decorating my first child’s nursery, my mother […]

Aaaaahhhh. Clean(ish) Kids’ Rooms!

January 23, 2014 By Dana White 23 Comments

Monday was a school holiday. My kids were (not so) thrilled when I announced on Saturday that Monday would be a Day of Decluttering. I narrowed my eyes (for effect) and warned them that I was thinking of implementing the “Sure, you can get on your Kindle Fire as long as your room is clean!” […]

Dr. Hubby Diagnoses My Slob Problem

January 22, 2014 By Dana White 11 Comments

He has figured it out, people. Yep. Dr Hubby claims he now knows the cause of all my Slob Problems. I can’t aim. He figured this out by the fact that there are Q-tips all around the bathroom trash can, but rarely a single one actually IN the trash can. He confirmed it while watching […]

Happy Birthday to me! I’m scheduling this post to go up the night before I turn 40. The Big Four Oh. To celebrate, I’m waxing eloquent about growing older. Here goes: When I turned ten, I cried. I cried because I was getting old. For real. Thankfully, my concerned teacher took me out in the […]
