Freedom From Clutter Real Life

Declutter Challenge: Flat Surfaces!

Welcome back to Day 16 of Freedom from Clutter in 40 Days.  If you are tired of the burden of clutter then this series is for you.  Day by day we are getting rid of the items that weigh us down, slow us down, and get in the way of having time to spend with our families.

We invite you to join our special Facebook group to share your ideas, joys, concerns, and declutter stories with us.  Together, we are learning to find Freedom from Clutter.  This is a focused 40 day program, but we plan to keep the group going all year long.  You can join us at any time.  What is really fun about this project is that we are sharing our real struggles with clutter.  There are no organization experts here.  We are just real people sharing our real life experiences including our frustrations and joy as we declutter our homes.


 

Declutter-Challenge-Flat-Surfaces

Today, I have a treat for you.  Our friend Lydia over at Life Beyond the Kitchen and Lydia’s Flexitarian Kitchen is sharing her struggles with decluttering flat surfaces in her home.  I think this is a common problem for many of us and I have to say that it feels so much better to know that I’m not alone.  My family drives me crazy because every time that I clear a flat surface, they take it as an invitation to dump their junk in the open space.  Anyone else have family members like this?   Hop over to Life Beyond the Kitchen and read Lydia’s experience with clearing flat surfaces.  She has given me some hope for the flat surfaces in my home. Still here?  Ok…………click here to get over to Lydia’s article.   Make sure to leave Lydia a comment to share your experiences with flat surfaces.  Check back each week for more from Lydia during our Freedom From Clutter in 40 Days series.

On another note……..if you are interested in simple recipes your family is sure to love make sure you check out my recipe index.  I am adding new recipes all of the time so make sure you check back often.  You will also want to grab this free meal-planning printable calendar to make your meal planning easier.  It has areas to plan your daily activities and your evening meal prep.
