Utter clutter described my Diva Den too. So I decided to purge a bit. I had an empty guest bedroom to use....no one coming to stay. It hasn't been used in more than 6 months.
I could drag things into it & sort through them, then only move back the things I wanted to keep in there. It was working so well. Really. I had
lots moved into the bedroom. I was on a roll... just beginning to sort.
Yes. You guessed right. My brother called. He wanted to come visit. That means stay....for about 2 weeks. Until after Christmas. That room is always his when he comes.
So....everything went back to the Diva Den.
Now, there are 2 decorative little signs hanging on the Diva Den door:
1. Quilting fills my days. And my closets. And the dining room and the space under the bed(s), and behind the couch...
and
2. This room will not tidy itself, so let's just close the door.
Santa should just stay out or I will end up on the naughty list. Again.
FYI: Retirement means you actually have less time to do the things you've been putting off until you retire..not more. The good thing is, you can still put them off a bit longer.
