okay getting some things done, but always get distracted when in the man cave areas in the basement.
Gone through all my clothes, shoes, bedding, and kids outerwear. Made 4 piles: (1) give to relatives, (2) donate, (3) rags, (4) trash.
Drawers in office, bedrooms and common areas have been organized. We'll have the cleaner stay longer next week to do the windows. They wiped down the furniture and doors each time they are here, so my listed isn't necessarily all to do but to see that it gets done. Cleaned out one of the fridges, we have two in the kitchen, but still need to defrost the basement chest freezer. This is a good time to do this since it's cold outside. Think I'll work for home today and make that happen. Also made sure all indoor bulbs and the batteries and battery back ups are refreshed. Making progress but still quite a bit to go.
Again stuck terribly with I go into the bike shop and little chance it's getting converted back to an indoor driving range anytime soon, that will need to wait till after new years. This is my organized chaos every time I work on bikes. I'm working on getting the right parts this time then set it and forget, rather than trying to make it work. My holiday stuff is also in the back corner which is why there are boxes everywhere. Maybe this weekend I'll put away the tree?
My bike mess was here but moved inside to accommodate my overwintering goldfish in the garage. I'll need to reorganize it as my daughter wants to do some woodworking this winter/spring and is interested in using the Shopsmith Mark V hidden in the back.
Also working on cleaning the listening room, see how my mind works?..., sorting through my comic collection to go on Bay this year. Found a few gems, but mostly worthless. This is where I squandered my paper route money. Keeping about 50 and the 500-600 gets sold this year. Again more piles, but not yet gone.
Lastly, one thing I failed to mention in the OP is the digital junk, pictures, videos, music, movies, etc. Cleaned out phone, cameras and main computer this weekend. I try to do pictures and videos after each time we come back from a long vacation. Took me about 6 hrs to preview, edit, label, file and backup. I don't mind it, but can really catch up to me if I let it go, it used to be so much easier with film.
