You may remember (or probably not HA) That I had one main goal in July and that was to clean out the basement. I am happy to report that I accomplished that goal (almost!)! And, well, even a little more!
1) I emptied all of the containers and "junk" from the basement into the garage and set up a sorting station where I sorted stuff out to either keep it, sell it, or give it away (oh, and trash it!). I am happy to report that I threw out about 8 bags of trash and took about 4 boxes to Good Will and have a good box worth of stuff to try and sell. I took back into the basement about 1/4 of what went out. The basement is clean, organized and everything has a home. Now, I'm about 95% done but need to finish up stuff in the garage - we ended up with a 90 degree week so I focused more on the inside than stuff that was outside!
2) Thanks to a very hot week this week, I spent more of my "basement time" working on totally cleaning/organizing the "other" side of the basement too. This allowed me to accomplish a lot more than planned.
3) I have sold a few things. I'd like to sell more.
4) I also focused on things in other rooms too. I cleaned out and cleaned the entire kitchen from top to bottom including cleaning out some things we didn't use/need. I cleaned the entire bathroom too and cleaned out a lot of stuff that has been stuck back in cupboards since we moved here :-) Plus our bedroom got a nice deep clean and I totally cleaned out the playroom and that included getting some toys the boys have truly outgrown out of the bins!
