Thanks Fey, your Words helped me too. 😘

I think it’ll be good for you to go back through the playroom anyways. Going through it a 2nd time will really show you what you have an attachment to. I bet you’ll even let go of things you weren’t ready to the first time.

No need to apologise your doing really well..well done for admitting you had a little set back and just move forward again, you got this!! 😊

Once you get all the yard sale stuff out it will be another huge weight off!

Omg you really shouldn’t be that hard on yourself. You have made tremendous progress and should be very proud of yourself. You are doing great and a fantastic inspiration to me and many others. When you do the garage sale and see how much stuff goes (think of all the joy you had with the items and your giving that joy to someone else, how fantastic to do that) and the space you gain, it will give you new motivation to keep going. Your amazing. 👏👏👏

You just weren't ready for the playroom at that time. You are strengthening the parts of your brain associated with decluttering and organizing. You are getting better and better and you will be ready someday. Also, I cannot imagine trying to work full-time and have kids with activities and care for a home. You must be dead tired every day.

You may not be ready for it yet, but I want to suggest this again. Take a picture of the things you have strong memories attached to, and you will be able to hold on to the memories without needing the item itself. Perhaps not now, but down the line it might be an option. As always, rooting for you!

I understand when she says that pictures are not the same. I have an awesome friend who made a quilt from my babies clothing and receiving blankets. It's like churning and not churning at the same time

"Things fall apart. The center cannot hold." Meaning that disorder is natural, the decluttering process is constant and it will slowly improve as you continue your efforts against entropy! Beautiful progress! Practice makes perfect!

Your (us?) followers aren’t the ones looking for apologies. Your sons are the ones that are unable to play in their playroom; as you have time and the mental stamina, get back into the playroom and let the kids focus on what they want and don’t want anymore, and what they don’t want that you still have a sentimental attachment to, set a period of time where it can stay in the basement, perhaps, until you feel ready to let it go. I’ve tried very hard to make my kids focus on the One In One Out rule. For each toy that is brought into the house, one needs to go to accommodate space needs. I can’t wait until you get into the basement! You’re doing very well, just keep up the momentum and in no time you’ll have clean and tidy rooms and spaces that are decorated to your liking! You’re not alone in the boat... there’s a hoarder inside all of us! 😉

If you're struggling with the habit of just putting everything on the table as you walk into you house, it might be an idea to make a reminder there. Maybe just get a piece of paper saying "put your stuff away" and tape it to the table. Might be an excellent reminder to hang that habit. I struggled with that habit as well, turns out that my cat really likes the taste of my bag, so if I don't put it away immediately after I get home, she'll eat it. Really helped me change that habit haha

Yes, that is very true, but with places not having been cleared out it's hard to get everything a designated spot

You’ve come such a long way. It’s a process! And it’s wonderful that you’ve been able to maintain the rooms you have. Keep up the amazing work and positive attitude! I’ve noticed that if we apply terms to ourselves we believe them and and become them. Maybe instead of saying “I am a hoarder” you can say “I am not a hoarder, I was a hoarder and now I am changing that”. I also understand the idea of wanting to keeping something new, but to me when something is in a new package or unwrapped it makes me sad. I want to know that the item that was given to me is being used and loved. It’s like seeing someone with smile lines you know they had a great long life laughing and smiling. It’s the same when I come across a tattered book, you know it was loved and read many times. Maybe changing the way you think about new vs used can help encourage you to use them. I hope this helps and doesn’t sound condescending. I sincerely love watching your journey and appreciate you sharing it with us. 💕

I say I'm a recovering hoarder😀

Do not beat yourself up. You have done amazingly well. You need to understand that this is not a one and done process. You cannot fix years of bad habits in a few months. This will take years and several decluttering sessions and that's ok as long as you are consistently moving forward. Flylady says if you are having trouble keeping an area clutter free, a hot spot, either remove the furniture to another area or make it pretty so you dont want to clutter it.

You can be very proud of what you accomplished for yourself and your whole family! I also think it was a clever decision to make it public and talk about it - it might help keeping it up. Moreover, I think you are helping a lot of other hoarders. Thanks a lot!

When your boys grow a bit older, they might want/need separate rooms. Playroom would be perfect for that☺ Life changes all the time.. I have lots of things I don't even remember. But when I find them, there is some weird sentimental urge to keep them. I try to get rid of things like that, and then I just try to forget the fact that I donated those things. By doing so it doesn't 'hurt' so much to let go😅 Basically I am just tricking myself, but I don't mind as long as it works😅😅

You didn’t disappoint anyone, you’re doing so well! You’ve made a ton of progress and you’re trying the best you can and that’s all that matters!

Good job on decluttering! I would clean the garage together with husband. Pull some of the stuff on yard and divide to his and yours and then you would declutter your own piles.

Dont feel you let US Down, just do the room one more time. It Will be easier this time. You have grown so much. About the basement - just take it one little bite at a time, you Can do it girl! ❤️

Garage i would plan a weekend to tackle as a whole family. Organize into categories as you remove it. Get hubby to put up shelves and get storage containers with labels. It will be wonderful when it is done. And your hubby will love it functioning

I'm not disappointed in you. I'm new in my journey and I had a garage sale this weekend. Letting go of my things and some of my kids things has been tough, but I do feel lighter at the end of the day. It's a process. Give yourself a break.

I think you’ve done amazing and decluttering is just one phase (not a small one either!), maintaining is totally different and need systems set up. The fact that you are aware of your behaviour patterns shows great insight. Hubby and I are in our early thirties and decluttering 10years together in a tiny 2 bed apartment took me 3 years and I wasn’t working so seriously this is a win! 💕

Good idea to get your son to be involved in clearing off his desk!

A suggestion to how to declutter large rooms would be watching The Messy Minimalist 's videos. She's not a hoarder (I don't think) but they have a business so they have massive storage spaces filled with clutter. There may be good tips for you

Great job keeping the majority of your rooms clean. Maintaining the rooms is a difficult task and you’re working on changing your habits. I’ve had a similar situation with our extra room. Hope you have a lot of success at your sale tomorrow!

I am so proud of your progress! When you get to the basement, it may be helpful to start with all of the cardboard boxes. They're bulky & take up a lot of space. Break each one down for recycling & get it out. You have plenty of plastic tubs for storage and organization. Just a thought!

One more thing - the biggest thing I’ve noticed for keeping my own self organized (and my dreams of starting an organizing business) is that we never take full advantage of the vertical space our walls offer. Use shelves or wall cabinets and make sure everything is easily accessible! I can’t wait for you to tackle the basement and garage! So pumped for you on your progress! You’re doing so well!

You don't need to apologize to us, we know how far you've come and I'm sure I'm not the only one who is So very proud of you 😍 Maybe once a month do a video of one of the rooms you've already done, that way you can keep on top of stuff. Keep up the good work you are truly an inspiration xxx

Love hearing your thoughts as you go from room to room. Cheering you on! 👏👏👏

I have been binge watching your videos and you deserve a lot of praise for being your own healer. You detected your problem, went deep into the underlying reasons and found solutions along with the willpower to change it on your own. You are truly awesome. But the main reason I want to write this down is to tell you that you are endowed with a terrific vivid memory. You remember and visualise the experiences you have had exactly as it happened and this is your reward. So you don't need to hold on to your stuff as you already have them in your memories. Maybe you can take a picture of items for each year and make and album and write down what they meant to you once. But that's it! You already own those items in your wonderful heart&brain. Another thing that saddens me is that you have waste time, money and energy on all those things when you are a great mama, daughter, sister, wife, worker, friend, believer, etc. You have so many valuable roles in this world and in those people's lives around you. Why would you torture yourself with all those items when you have a great memory. It is time to make even more memories for yourself by reducing your workload of handling thousands of things. Lastly, it also saddens me to feel that you are not supported with your husband, children and family enough in this process. They need to see you struggle emotionally and physically quite a bit and become your walls to protect you, to support you and to ease this process for you. I feel everybody in the house need to develop some organizational habits, not only you and find ways to stop or organise that come into your house everyday. It may be your husband's duty to pick up and organise mail every day after work. It is nice that you are setting an example for your children for both organising and dealing with difficulties in life. It may be the time to let them tackle the play room by themselves and create categories on their own. They have plenty of energy anyway :) You have a beautiful heart, a strong personality, a wonderful memory and many more, so you are so valuable. I hope you enjoy every moment of your life and stay healthy. Lots of love from Turkiye.

Put it all in the sale, and then donate what does not sale. You can arrange for a pickup that day!

Thank you for being so brave and real! I've got quite a bit to go in my own hoarding tendencies. I'll be following for some inspiration. Continue your journey to peace and reaching your dreams.

You haven’t let anyone down sweetie! You are doing great juggling mommy/wife/working life and you will find it much easier once you do your second sweep of decluttering and once the garage sale stuff goes you will feel refreshed 🦄⭐️🦄⭐️🦄

Hello my sweet unicorn friend! BRAVISSIMA! you are doing so well in maintaining! really! please don't ever feel you are letting anyone down! You are so brave in sharing and it does help. As someone else wrote already, healing is not linear it takes its own curvy bumpy road and (unfortunately) what you experienced in that ONE room...do you realise you maintained ALL the rest??? is what tends to happen. It has happened to me many times, to bring almost all of my flat to a point I could have dinners, and friends, and family, (with a few stacks in one room but nothing major) and having compliments on how pretty my flat was and then BOUM major setback...in my case it was not limited like you to one area, and that is what brought me so down this time around again...working my way back, with a huge struggle. Back to your spaces...one positive thing can come out of that minor step back...try to notice in your heart and with awareness why THAT room. One thing is that you always told us it was the most emotional part, your kids' things, the other that comes to mind, is that it is the "least" functional room in an everyday routine, potentially it could not exist and life can go on as is...while the other rooms are lived on a day to day basis...just offering some thoughts on it as they come, no conclusions. GOSH!!! you have a yellow plastic shelving unit in your basement...I had THE SAME ONE as a kid when I lived in the States at one point and really loved that...speaking of attachment...do not know where that ended with all our neverending moves...and you know what? I just figured out why that shade of yellow is one of my favourite colours!! I was happy then and there...and I painted my living room walls that same colour...wow..maybe it is the most common shelf in every house in the USA but I have never seen it again and it really touched me...sending you always Light and Love...best of luck for your yard sale...DON'T LET ANYTHING GET BACK INTO THE HOUSE SHOULD IT BE UNSOLD! 🙏🏻💚

Good job, darling!! You are doing a good job, step by step... you will get Your "Gran Finale"! Don't give up! Best wishes from Spain.

I have the same issue with my garage. Its taking me a long time to go thru. This is what ive been doing with hubbys stuff. I'll grab maybe a couple of his items or a bin of items and ask him to go thru it or if he needs the item. That way its getting worked on, but it doesnt take much of his time and doesnt feel too overwheling for him

Youre doing a great job! Just keep focusing on the positive and the motivation will follow!

You are doing good, keep it up. For the playroom the kids can't and don't play with most of the stuff in there. I would get rid of most of the toys in there. Then to help keep it clean I would separate the boys to each have there own room. Then they can better help you keep it clean. Plus you would learn what they actually play with and that would be the toy categories I would stick to. As of holidays I would start buying experiences and taking them fun places instead of wasting money on more and more stuff. You keep throwing out candy so don't buy it they aren't eating it and just like the Easter toys they must not like them either because not only did you not put them away but they didn't take them out of the baskets to play with either. So there it sits a waste. Not trying to be rude but give the boys a space they love and can use. If they don't play with it but you can't get rid of it put it in the basement or garage in your horder space not theirs. That will also help you see what they like and don't like and help you let go of so much to a child who will love it. I kno it is hard but I also kno you want the boys to have a great childhood. It's hard but give then space to grow and learn life skills. Decisions, cleaning, money management, care of items, holiday activities and true meanings of holidays. Not just clutter, constant gifts, stay a baby, keep unused/ baby toys cause mom says, anxiety and hording themselves. Help them balance it all. You are a great mom. I kno it is long but I felt you where ready to read it. You are growing so much. Keep up the great work. Proud of you. I would redo the kids space first they did horde it. Then have hubby help so he has room too. You horde not them give them space in the house. I can hear the deep love for them when you talk. Show them it by getting rid of stuff and relying that, that love means more then all the stuff stopping you from enjoying the space, activities and home you share. Love friend and good luck on the rest of your journey.

Generally you are doing well.Just one little advice: please stop buying organisation things and cute buskets. You keep buying them without a specific plan in mind and they end up being part of the clutter.😊

You can be really proud of yourself! You are truly amazing. I just wanted to share a thought with you to help you with the gifts: What do you think your loved ones think when they see a present they gave to you one year ago, still being in the pakaging? Do you truly think they understand it is to keep it brand new and remember the moment they gave it to you? Or do they think they gave you something that you truly don't like, and that's why you don't use it and keep it hidden in a bag? Personally, I know that my loved ones love it when they know I use the presents they gave me, it reassures them and they always think "Yeah! I got it right, she loves it". But, if I were to keep it hidden in a bag, they would be disappointed, thinking they didn't got it right. With all my love !!!

I don’t think of myself as a hoarder. We have lived in the same house for 27years so by not moving we have accumulated a lot. Once we didn’t want it or need it anymore it went down into our crawl space. I have boxes of stuff I never knew what to do with. I don’t have bags like you. I’m trying to make my way through my house room by room. We live in a big farm house. Our girls are grown and gone. We have 2 grandsons. They have their own room here and a playroom. I’m posting items to sell on Facebook if it does not sell I put it in a box or bag and off to Goodwill it goes. My girls don’t want my stuff so why keep it?!?!

As for your living room/dining table area by the front door, you need to get a "landing zone" area there or in the kitchen for homework, mail, types of mail like shred, bills, and a spot maybe even for your keys/wallet/etc. Also, keep a "clutter bin" in each room so you can pick up a bin in one room, carry it effortlessly and put it back in it's home. The idea is to try to narrow down what you love/need to keep and finding a place for it.

You are doing great! Keep inspiring us!

You are doing SOOOOO GOOD STILL. It's good that you recognize when another problem it's starting. Maybe do the laundry room and then go back to the playroom so you can feel better with a victory and then take on something that didn't go well the first time. Something you might wanna look in to is a local charity that takes things because I think a bit of a problem for you is getting rid of something and then it not being used and getting thrown away. And I think it would help for you to see exactly where it's going and who it will be helping. Goodwill is great for some stuff but I think it's better to find somewhere where it's being used to directly help someone. BUT REMEMBER YOUR STILL DOING AN AMAZING JOBBBBB 💙❤💜💛💚

Omg you totally got me excited with those lunch boxes. Ah childhood memories. Please please please do a small video on those lunch boxes. Perhaps letting us know how you came across them.

i do the thing where i like to keep the stuff i buy in the original bags and packaging lol ... my husband just rips everything out and rips the tags off and trashes the boxes and bags and it hurts me when he does that 😂

Oh yayyyy!! Your messages make my heart so much 💜💗💜

You did really, really well! I think that your most used rooms already look 'normal'. Garage, laundry room etc. are areas of clutter for many people. It will take some time but step by step you will tackle everything! Keep up all the good work! Thank you for putting yourself out there, you are an inspiration for many people. ❤ Was just wondering about the guinea pigs, can they also run around when your kids play with them? Their cage seemed pretty small to me. 🙈

Recently read that Guinea pigs have to have a another guinea pig so I’m glad you have a pair💕✌️ Keep on keeping on congratulations 🎀

IM SO PROUD OF U HOARDERS HEART !💟😀
