I'm trying to do it the Flylady way, it was darn hard the way Grandma used to do it. Totally remove everything from a room, even the wall paper, clean and put up new wall paper. I'll admit it was needed since the heating was with wood fireplace and wood kitchen stove. The whole thing must have taken 10 days to 2 weeks, and it was WORK!!!
I'm trying to do it the Flylady way, a little bit at a time, consistently. Not that I'm all the way, but the mere idea of removing all my stash in one day makes me feel weak and in need of chocolate.
