I'm having a garage sale next weekend with several friends, so my focus this week is to purge as much as possible. I went to several decluttering websites, and on one it said to ask yourself if you love an item, and if you have used it within the last year. If the answer is no, get rid of it! On another website it says to ask yourself if the item brings you happiness. When you look at it or use it does it make you happy. I have a feeling I will be getting rid of a lot. 
Hopefully.
Yesterday I cleaned out my laundry room. Cleaned the washer and dryer, scrubbed the floor on my hands and knees, and put stray items where they belong. The room looks so much lighter now, and this is what I want to achieve in the rest of the house.
Today I plan to work on my:
kitchen
dining rm
dining rm closet
computer rm
living rm
hall bath
I am piling evertything for the garage sale into a corner in my living rm and plan to start pricing Tues evening.
I hope to post my progress every evening to keep myself motivated.
