Keeping it up is the hard part for me... and not overdoing the stash. <BR/><BR/>I hope you are feeling better from your fall and that all things are on the mend for a great start to the new year. :-) HettieHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01676354044872574909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24012787.post-11446489488909292192008-01-02T19:04:00.000-08:002008-01-02T19:04:00.000-08:00I have a huge stash but I've been trying to decrea...I have a huge stash but I've been trying to decrease it and I'm winning the battle, it's just all the little pieces now LOL.

(I know there's more to be done, but as you say, a little bit here, a little bit there, and all of a sudden a big bit is done.)<BR/><BR/>Happy New Year!

When I forget this, I get overwhelmed and fall into De Nial.<BR/><BR/>I hope we see you today at MM.CatBookMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13539824268008907535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24012787.post-47086845997202636762007-12-31T08:24:00.000-08:002007-12-31T08:24:00.000-08:00Falling?

Most of it is residing in my dining room. THANKS!!!!

That would just be depressing. I went to three yarn shops yesterday and only bought one skein of sock yarn and that was only because it was the first time I had actually seen the new Noro sock yarn and I needed a sample for the yarn museum. It's scratchy though.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05950204928718565106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24012787.post-16574733031772259492007-12-30T17:50:00.000-08:002007-12-30T17:50:00.000-08:00Just look at what you did in 2007!

I'll bet there's a huge difference. <BR/><BR/>I'd suggest going around and taking pics of stash areas or working areas NOW, so you have a baseline when you're going through this again a year from now. You have changed some significant habits this year. If you keep improving in '08, you will have a LOT to be proud of.<BR/><BR/>I know I culled a lot when I moved (I did have Sandy over, after all!). I need to get back to organizing the TV room, since that's Knit Central, and will eventually get around to organizing the basement (Quilt Central) better. I've been buying and just tossing stuff down the stairs. Literally. Not good.DPUTigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04972128797520034784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24012787.post-85150345442726008112007-12-30T17:48:00.000-08:002007-12-30T17:48:00.000-08:00I have to agree with sheepish annie, you really do...I have to agree with sheepish annie, you really do need to STOP falling, tripping, head dives into jars, etc. STOP HURTING YOURSELF!<BR/><BR/>From everything I've seen you've made some serious progress with destashing and organizing. Now you need to harness ET, destashing doesn't do much good if ET is restashing as you go along *wink*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24012787.post-14238510293857365092007-12-30T16:32:00.000-08:002007-12-30T16:32:00.000-08:00OK.

I imagine that your family will agree with me on this one.<BR/><BR/>Secondly, I think you really did a pretty good job with the organizing. Sometimes goals need tweaking and other times they prove to be less than doable. Or need to be carried over into the next time frame. Either way, you're aware of what you need to do and are making progress! Yay!!!Sheepish Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15564802976550099985noreply@blogger.com
