So Many Decisions! Fall Cleanup!
Fall is here and it is a perfect time to cleanup and clean out your home. If you are planning on putting up your house for sale, it might be a good thing to start soon. It takes time and you probably don't realize how much you need to clean out. It might be best to do this over a course of a few days. And make sure you do one room at a time! I always start with three different piles in mind. 1. Put away, 2. Sell or Donate and 3. Storage.
If you have "Never" used it...out it goes. Either a yard sale, trash or donate. Don't second guess yourself. There is no room for second chances. Out it goes! If you have to think of the last time you used it, it's been too long!
If you have used it "within the last year or so"....out it goes except if it something seasonal or a treasured item of a memory. You'll have to make that determination when you are deciding about the item. I always feel that if you put away something you haven't seen in a year, you probably won't see it for another year and forget that it was even there!
If you have used it "with the last month or so", than that might be an item that you want to keep.You still do have to find a home for this. Sometimes it belongs in a different room. Put that in a sorting pile for later.
And lastly, if you use it all the time, well... it just stays where it is.
