Decluttering for July

So for the month of July I am decluttering one area a day I really don't have the time to do it one whole section of the house the way the group organizer suggests but I am getting rid of one of stuff per day which is freeing.  I believe that every thing in our home either gives us energy or takes away energy.  By getting rid stuff we don't need we are allowing more positive energy to enter the home. I am wondering if I can do this every month.  At least until the spring when I am hoping to get the house on the market.  Part of the reason for my motivation for decluttering although I have always "tried" to do it is I started helping my mom  clean and get her house ready to sale.  30 years worth of stuff.  I don't want my kids (or spouse) to have to go through my stuff like we did when Lee's mom died.

We spent several hours helping my mom yesterday.  Jake has taken on the project of taking all the wall paper off the walls.  Then we will be painting and the never ending job of  getting rid of stuff.  She still isn't sure she is going to put it on the market but she still needs some changes done.

Tennis canceled today because Meridian and Boise got an amazing rainstorm that totally passed over us.  I was disappointed in the lack of rain we got and the boys were disappointed that we didn't get to play at the park and splash pad today.   I registered the kids for a triathlon for the 18th.  Lee reminded me not to get too many pictures because I would have the little boys without him. :)

Eight days until the bike trip and I am gone this weekend and I work three nights next week.   So chaos for sure on Thursday.  I know it is only ten days but it is really overwhelming to me.  We have some fun things planned and I work the last two days Lee is gone which is good and bad.
