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,
Another beautiful sunny day today. Snow on grass is all gone and temps starting to rise again.
I have 3 sizes of pants in my closet. The size I wear now, 1 size up (actually the pants and jeans that are too big are in a bin in the basement), and 1 size down. If you look at the tags on my pants it looks like more sizes, but 14W and 16P are actually the same size, my current size - and 14P is my target size. I will probably need to buy white jeans in 14P if I get there by summer. My 2xl tops are just hanging on me now, some of those I just donated. I have XL tops that I wear now and will probably continue to wear even if I lose more.
My weight loss has stalled, my fault, but I’m not gaining any more so I just need to get back on a losing track. I was doing arm exercises yesterday, very sore this morning. A nice hot shower should help.
Ruth - glad you had comfortable seats on your flight. I haven’t flown anywhere in years, but even my short legs were always cramped.
Enjoy your day

Good early evening all. Need to start dinner shortly. Stan went to his first official boxing class today. He said there’s a real diversity in how the clients are responding to PD. He said he’s probably in the best shape of anyone there; but I guess that’s to be expected since he was just diagnosed 3+ mo ago. Hope he stays in good shape.
I went and had a cup of tea and visited with my DF who lives in near the Y & the boxing class. We set a date for another visit and for dinner out as couples. We enjoy them both very much.
Didn’t get much else done today other than taking the Christmas lights off the back deck. Have thought about doing it for a while, but just finally did it. Figured we should do it when it’s in the 60’s and there’s no snow on the deck or anywhere else. With my luck I’d wait and we’ll have snow and they’ll be there until July 4th or something!
Martha, hope everything is ok. Hope whatever it is can be fixed!
Joy, I’m going to decide how many sizes to keep. Some of the really smaller things I have are so old and some are probably out of style by now. And I’ve decided I really like longer tops (to cover my rear) even when I’m thinner so some that are shorter won’t make the cut, no matter the size. Not sure if I’ll try to sell or donate to the reservation.
Going to watch hockey game tonight. Sure hope it’s a good one.
more tomorrow!
