    Much of my July decluttering has seemed like "everyday" tasks but I had previously come to a standstill even with some of those. Consequently, this challenge has at least encouraged me to begin to tackle things thanks.

    Hi, I left things open last month as to whether I would continue decluttering. I have been "thinking things over" regarding my managing and mismanaging different aspects of everyday life and where clutter fits in. Consequently, I wish to continue this challenge and try and improve things. I have kept an August list which will be presented in bits. Thanks.
