Oh yeah, close that closet door! That bit of feng shui really works! Tell Us: What Helps You Fall Asleep? |

My pillow, a cool room, and light bedding usually does the trick. When the mind cannot be stilled, I add chamomile tea and a projected light show onto the ceiling and walls. For really difficult nights of sleep, I'll listen to peaceful sounds like loons on a lake, or the echoes of sounds in a factory. Tell Us: What Helps You Fall Asleep? |

I will straighten the office bookshelf today, but I am very good at decluttering media. I have a rule for books - they only stay if they are on the "to read" list or if the are on the "re-read list". With new books, games and movies coming out everyday, we realized a few years ago that if we stopped buying new books and tried to reread our collection, we would not finish in our lifetime. Goodbye books! Also, they are heavy, heavy, heavy to haul around in your life! Many years ago, I joined paperbackswap.com and started sending my books away for book credits. Now I read a book and swap it. And if I want to own, I buy it for the Kindle. We also had comic books and have recently sold the bulk of that collection except for the titles we will absolutely reread. We are also rid of the VCR tapes and most CD music. CD music has been replaced with digital versions. We turned them in for store credit to an independent music store. We rarely buy DVD's anymore thanks to iTunes, HuluPlus, and Netflix.

I am in the middle of my project - I got a good start on it today. I am going through our Craftsman storage unit. It is filled with tools and various items that were tossed in before we moved overseas for four years. I spent a lot of time today with WD-40 and a heavy duty 3M scrubber cleaning the rust off of unused tools and sorting them out. Finding duplicates (how many screwdrivers do we need?), discarding junk and putting items away so that we can find them. We live in an apartment with lots of closets. The tool chest is in one of these closets - and I have to say that having it close at hand rather than tucked into a basement has been fantastic!

I'm going to organize a utility closet. I will organize the tools and clear out items that are no longer needed. Day 5: Select One Project from Your List to Complete this Month Apartment Therapy January Cure |
