Those Christmas decorations will appear again before we know it.

You will have to be more practical as you get older Kabu just stack all your cards in a heap for a quick recycle use wrapping paper for cat litter and start making a rug from those ill fitting jumpers that you have been given. Please let everyone know your new year's resolution. Mine is to stop mind reading.

I am constantly working on uncluttering for about 1/2 year and liking it better the more I do.  It is a settling feeling to have useful current things and move the others to the trash or to someone who can use them now.

I didn't have decorations to put away this year

My brother and I are a little strange as neither of us really get into them.  This drove our family members crazy because we didn't have a tree and they kept sending us ads for them etc... we didn't want one LOL!

As for uncluttering; that is my plan for the weekend.  I like to start every year with a clean space and getting rid of things I no longer need.

That sounds like a queue to relax for 10 minutes or more...  I do enjoy the time to sit and get lost in great books

You've got the mess cleaned up...
and I don't even want to bother with the clothes in the dryer. Guess you could say I lack ambition.

Now that you've uncluttered
would you like to take a trip down South and unclutter with me? That would be the perfect motivation for me to get started! LOL

Uncluttering is good and I wish
I could get uncluttered.  Hopefully Friday and Saturday I will be off. I need to get the chi flowing with grace and ease.

Uncluttering
 I can easily imagine Mr Graysome enjoying himself ha ha. But I don't like Gnomes or fairies or such but research is hard work and that is something as writers we have to do. Happy New Year to you both and I look forward to any other non gnome stories you may write. Great post, and always enjoyable. Happy New Year.
