KonMari: Preparing for Success
I watched the entire Netflix series Tidying Up with Marie Kondo on January 1st. I've read both The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up and Spark Joy in the past couple years. I did a quick tidy of my home to make sure everything was in place to begin going through the categories again. I wrote my Konmari schedule into my planner and printed a list for each week to work on. I'll add things each week if needed. I'll do each category in the area it's stored and don't have a special place to stage my things. I'm using a laundry basket in the laundry room to collect discards if needed. I'll bag up my items before the end of the evening and load them in the truck for donation at my favorite local charity. I'll take before pictures, during, and after pictures.
My 2019 project goals for my unfinished KonMari categories are:
• Furniture- Paint and Stain the dresser/buffet for the family room. & Paint the furniture stored in the barn & Paint and refinish the floors in the laundry room and my husband's office. & Paint the upstairs hall.
• Sentimental- Delete unwanted digital pictures, organize our 6 photo boxes of printed pictures, scan printed pictures to digital.
My vision is to be a light and love as Christ loves me. My husband and I to enjoy our empty nest years with many adventures. To be a blessing to our children and grandchildren while sharing many family times. Have a peaceful relaxing home that supports our life together. We enjoy our home and love to welcome our family and friends.
