For ...Re. decluttering, we did plenty of that too!<br /><br />For our new home we got rid of the storeroom and didn't build ourselves a whole lot of storage aside from the usual floor-to-ceiling bedroom cupboards -- that's really keeping us in check right now.<br /><br />We thought we did good moving in with only 10 boxes of stuff, but we still manage to thrash and recycle a ton of stuff after moving in!Evelynhttp://thebottomsupblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1072099236937422307.post-21810792757447679842011-04-01T00:00:32.100+08:002011-04-01T00:00:32.100+08:00Oh gawd!

Seriously, there are so many things "better" to be done (eg: playing with baby, cuddling and even blogging) than housework, yeah? Lol...I have also been spending more time with trying to keep up my pace as a domestic housewife since my MIL had just op on her cataract. I'm also bugged by the constant untidiness that goes around in my room. Seems like things just get more with kids, huh?

We too are doing a fair amount of decluttering. <br /><br />One tip I learnt from a website sometime back which works for me: When walking out of one room to another, take a quick glance around and pick up what should belong to the room you are going to. Eg. if I am walking from the living room to the kitchen, and I see a cup lying around, I'll consciously pick it up to take along with me. I found doing this little bit really helps!Corsage@A Dollop Of Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12147931647105342881noreply@blogger.com
