Today's Marie Kondo

I got 5 bags of clothes and shoes out of the bedroom. That's tall kitchen trashbags (12 quarts), mind you. I may yet be able to reenter and use the closet.

I feel like admitting this sort of thing is admitting to being a mess and a hoarder, but progressing away from that is still progress.

I give myself triple points because this morning I had to ward off my mom's buying airplane tickets (from the dementia ward, on her computer) to make a surprise visit to my brother who'll be recovering from cancer surgery. That was a trip and a half.

I cleaned up my sewing room last winter... it was the first time I'd really cleaned, sorted, and organized it in a couple of years. I tried to stop beating myself up about ignoring it for so long, and instead focused on the fact that life was so crazy there wasn't the time.
