Welcome to the CLUTTERBUSTERS thread. We are a daily thread, Monday thru Friday, and we have a combined weekend edition Saturday and Sunday. We welcome new members and are a friendly, helpful and supportive group.
Our purpose is for support and sharing of tips and strategies in dealing with weight and clutter issues in our lives. Many feel that the two are often tied together. So, we will lend a caring ear, and hopefully give and learn tips to help all of us.
We want to remove at least 5 items or spend still least 15 minutes clutter busting today!
Remember, it didn't pile up in one day so it isn't going away in a day either. One organizer says: you don't have to stop everything to get organized, you just have to start somewhere

Good morning all,
Slept a lot better last night. It’s definitely going to be a rainy day today.
Wearing my red, white and blue outfit to wok today. I’m thinking it might be busy because of the weather. If it was. Nice day everyone would be doing yard work.
Enjoy your day

Joyce, thanks for the start-up. Enjoy your work today with your red, white and blue on. Very nice.
Ruth, any big plans for the long weekend? Will you be watching any of the girls this weekend?
We are leaving shortly to head up to the lake. Both DSs will be there to help with getting the boat ready. There is a lot involved with that and nothing that Bill and I can do by ourselves anymore. DS#1 and family aren't arriving till about 1, DGS#2 has an eleven o'clock little league game and they will come up when it is finished. There is also a game on Monday for DGS#1 so they plan on heading home Sunday after dinner. Weather is supposed to be nice so there will be a lot of outdoor time for the kids. Hopefully tonight we can have a campfire and do smores - a favorite for the kids. I just like the marshmallows - and usually have one or two.

Good morning all. Was wonderful to get up to sunshine this morning. Going to be nice today and tomorrow, then rain on Monday. Woke up to a nice surprise. A gentleman is interested in the elliptical I have listed. We want it gone out of the basement and fingers crossed that he takes it. Need to do some cleaning down there around it today. The girls play down there and toys are a mess and it’s dusty and I have a big bin of clothing to donate sitting next to it. Will try to get that whole area cleared up later today. Off to WW this morning and a couple errands after. Lunch out too. I don’t know if we’ll have the big girls. Not scheduled to have Mara until the middle of the week and then next weekend. DSIL is flying this weekend so DD might ask us to watch the bigger girls at some point. That would be ok.
Dottie, enjoy your lake weekend. So nice your DSs are coming to help get the boat in. Do you have a pontoon or a motor boat or??? Hope DDIL is feeling better now.
Joy, have a good weekend. Is the dealership open all weekend?
Cathy, have a great time with Jody!!
More later!!!

Back ... just as I predicted, great day at the dealership. I had 12 vehicles listed on my board, and I know there were more sold up front. Day flew by and I think it will be busy tomorrow too.
Dottie - I really enjoy s’mores. If dessert wasn’t planned for Monday, I’d probably suggest those. Maybe for the 4th of July.
Ruth - hope you sold the elliptical. That’s my least favorite piece of exercise equipment. I enjoy treadmill, bike or rowing machine.
See ya tomorrow.

Good night all. Guy came and looked at the elliptical and really wants it, but needs to find help moving it. My listing says that’s required. We told him we’d use our trailer to haul it to his house but he needs 3-4 guys to lift it. We just can’t do that. Praying he finds help!!! Younger DD & the girls came for dinner and girls are spending the night. We asked if they’d like to. They always say yes!! It’s to rain tomorrow so no outdoor play. Got 3 loads of laundry finished today. Went and looked at Adirondack Chairs today. We want the ones made from recycled milk jugs, not wood. Don’t want to need to haul in each winter or have to stain/varnish. But there is a big difference in quality and price we’ve discovered. Like a lot of things, you get what you pay for!!! Then we have to decide if we want to build a patio or another deck. Too many decisions for this time of night. Not to mention DH is asleep in his recliner and not much into talking!!! I’m off to bed shortly! Think I should wake him up to go to bed or just leave him? Temptation is strong to do that just once!! More tomorrow!
