Hi Friends,

Our project this week is figuring out what to do with our new canisters and what to put where. The flour canister cracked so I bought a set to replace it and others. And making more salsa from our garden tomatoes.

We brought our grandson to a pumpkin farm with hayrides and corn mazes, etc. He did not want to leave. I also brought him to the wetlands to do a fall scavenger hunt. We got everything but an acorn.

Here is the October Declutter Calendar PDF:

(How much can you declutter before the end of the year?)

1. Use a “Decision Later” box for clutter hotspots if you get stuck as you are decluttering
2. Try the One-Dollar Rule for impulse buying. Ask yourself if you would buy it, if it was a dollar more. 
3. Block off 15-minutes this week to do nothing.
4. Can't get rid of that hobby or project that never happened? Try writing it a thank you note about what it represented to you and then donate it.
5. Create a joy playlist and use it when you are cleaning or decluttering.
6. Label your cords with washi tape.
7. Swap out one habit that you spend money with one that is free or cheaper. ie exchanging one streaming service with a library app like Libby for free books and movies
