Welcome to the Clutter Patrol, formerly 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 at 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,
Dottie - safe travels
Beautiful day today, we’re heading to 70*.
Haircut early afternoon, then I’ll go to the grocery store to check out the produce. Salads are back on the menu this week. I’ll do a couple of days of taco salad, and I’m going to try the cheeseburger salad I saw on TikTok. Down 1.2#.
I plan on doing some cleaning in the garage this afternoon, reorganizing the big stuff, cutting up the cardboard. I’m going to start the snowblower and run out the gas, won’t be using it anymore this season. I might go to the Y later, and maybe the casino too.
Enjoy your day

Good morning all. It’s overcast and going to mid 40’s today after setting a record for soonest 70 in March in the history of record keeping. Got to 74 for about 5 min. Was super windy. We may have gotten drizzle overnight but that’s much better than the freezing mix they said might happen.
Had a great visit with our DF’s at lunch yesterday. They are 79 (him) and 80 (her) and they are both using canes for back/leg problems. Will probably be sometime in April when all 6 of us who have stuck together can get together for lunch. Can’t do much in the evening because no one wants to drive in the dark. Once it’s light out until 9 that won’t be a problem.
Had fun with Mara. Hadn’t seen her in a while. She did ask once if she was really going home yesterday or if she was staying over. We said as soon as their movie is over Mom/Dad will be here to get you. Then when they came she didn’t want to go home! Kids!!
Laundry is started and I have a few other things to do while Stan is gone. Going to try and get an appt with the Pre-Diabetes person at our doctor’s office. Hopefully insurance pays for it, but I think I need it either way.
I missed Dottie yesterday. Hope she has a great cruise. Nice to get away with friends and family.
Joy, good going on being down over a lb. Keep up the good work. Your menu sounds good. I made white turkey chili yesterday and sent a couple servings home with DS/DIL. Mara had a small bowl of it here. Stan had the 2nd half of his Ruben sandwich for dinner and I had chili, we’ll eat more of it tonight for dinner!!
Martha, you are doing well. Are you starting to be less tired? I’m so tired but when Stan is awake so am I usually. I hate being a light sleeper. Fun that you try new things for DH. Does he cook at all or do you do all/most of it? Does he grill in the summer? Hope your weather isn’t awful.
ok, Stan left for class so time for me to get moving and get some things done. Like that phone call. And I hear the dryer stopped so need to take care of that. Have a great day all.

G'mornin!!
(((Hugs)))
I wish it was 70 here. We will get to the 40s as a high. Lows could be down to 32.
I am the chief cook in the house. Dh can & does some cooking. Simple, basics mainly. I tend to overcook steak, so he's usually in charge of that. We have a countertop george foreman grill and have an outdoor george foreman grill. Before we got new stove with air fryer/convection, I would cook biscuits, cookies on outdoor grill. We shall see what the summer brings.
Laundry and spare room are on the agenda for today.
Have a great day!! (Hope joy wins some $$ at the casino)
(((Hugs)))
