DCOTD: Backlog

So! What did I declutter since Sunday?

• More envelopes.
• Empty cellophane tape dispensers. For some reason, I put them back in the drawer when they're empty. Maybe I'm under the delusion that I'll be environmentally conscious and buy refills. Not so much. So they're outta here.
• Dead frying oil. 
• Multiple bags of sunflower seeds, each with a bitty bit left in them.
• A whole lot of email.

A quick peer into the trash cans, and I think that's it.

DCOTD: Mail

Today's declutter was the obvious trash from the Recent Mail Stack. A half-trashcan of envelopes and brochures, recycled.

Answers: So where the heck did I go?

I'm not altogether sure why, but I seem to be taking a week's vacation from DCOTD. Maybe it's because I created another blog and my brain needs to work on being split one more way? Maybe it's solar flares?

Anyway, I plan to be back on, um, Sunday. Yeah, Sunday. On Sunday I'll throw stuff out and write about it.

DCOTD: The mess?

There was no perceptible decluttering this weekend. However, there was cleaning, sweeping, rearranging, dishwashing, and the washing of many loads of laundry. So I'm declaring success on the spirit of the thing, if not the letter.

Hey! Wait! Dead candy from last Christmas got tossed! And mail got recycled! Ta da!

DCOTD: ToDos that I no longer care to do

I use an application called OmniFocus to keep all of my ToDos and projects and tasks and such. It's been accumulating the usual dusty excess that ToDo lists accumulate, so yesterday and today I did a cleanout and a complete reorganization from scratch, and deleted all the "I really oughta do..." tasks that I'm not really going to do. I feel all spring-cleany.

DCOTD: The Format

I liked the whole Target/Casualties format when I started. I no longer like it. So away it goes. Foom!

But I still like pictures.

DCOTD: Still More Leftovers

A repeat of yesterday. Leftover eviction, refrigerator cleansing.

Should it worry me that that picture is making me hungry?
