The Declutter Diaries: Day 19

I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post.

The Declutter Diaries is a series of posts I did for a former blog as a glimpse inside a real decluttering project [with occasional editorial comments from my present self].  You can start with Day One here.

Today I declared a holiday.  Would you like to hear all of my great excuses?

  • I’m too tired
  • I didn’t sleep well last night
  • We have too much other stuff to do today
  • I had a guest today
  • I’ve been doing so well, I deserve a little break
  • Um, I’m sure there are a few more….

See?  All good reasons to declare a holiday.  Besides, I sold something and gave away a bag of stuff today, so that really counts as getting rid of clutter.  Go and do likewise (but get back to work tomorrow).

[Okay, well, I guess this sort of speaks for itself.  Sometimes you just need a break from a big project.  But don’t let it turn into an excuse to procrastinate.  Here are a whole bunch of posts I did on procrastination remedies:
