27 Things Find a New Home

Declutter activity for today:
The 27-Fling Boogie for items that need to find a new home
Grab a trash bag or a box and run through the house as fast as you can and grab 27 items that you do not love, need, or use. These items are clutter and they need to find a new home. Once you’ve filled the bag with 27 items to give away, either immediately take it to a charity drop-off location, or put it in your car to drop off THIS WEEK.
Or, if you think the items are saleable, our Prosperity Group will hold a garage sale when the weather gets a little warmer. If you do not have room for the bag or if you think you will nostalgically look through the bag at a later date and gradually re-clutter your home, email Shirley or Melissa and we will make arrangements to store the items elsewhere for you until the garage sale. The money from the garage sale will be used to do something fun for our group!
One other option is to sign up for Freecycle at Yahoo Groups. Freecycle allows you to list items you want to give away so someone who needs them can come get them from you for free.
Again, move through today’s decluttering as quickly as possible so we can get to the fun stuff!
Create A Bagua for Your Home
Feng Shui activity for today:
- Making the bagua work for your home
Draw out the floor plan of your home. Draw the floor plan for each floor separately. If you have three floors to your home, you will have three sheets of paper.
Now take this bagua:
and draw in the corresponding areas over your floor plan. Each area of the bagua should be the same size. If an area overlaps two or more rooms of your home, that’s fine.
The main door of the home (the architect determined this – this is not necessarily the door you use most often!) will always be on the side of the bagua with the Skills/Knowledge, Career, and Helpful People/Travel areas. Your main door will enter into any of these three areas. The only exception is if, as soon as you enter your home, you have to go up a flight of stairs to get to the actual living area, and you happen to be facing the opposite direction when you reach the top of the stairs, then you can use the top of the stairs as the “main entrance” to your home and place the bagua accordingly over your floor plan.
Here is an example of what it might look like:
Refer back to the journaling you did yesterday. You can make notes in each area of the things you want to pay special attention to this month.
