I have watched these cleanups for years (shows you how long I have been following) I have a piece of advice - find a place for eberything - that makes sense and grouped. Then label it - then you will know where it goes when you have finished with it. If you leave somehting out then make sure you put it back before starting the next days project. Ir is a great saying - A place for everything and everything in its place. Good luck with part 2,3,....

My problem is I have a rather high tolerance for working in and around chaos. This cleanup was inspired by a Facebook post I saw. A friend asked if anyone had done Marie Kondo style tidying - clutter clearing. I had to Google the name. Seems the "KonMari Method"-as it is called-consists of gathering together all of one's belongings, one category at a time, and then keeping only those things that "spark joy". That is just a ridiculous ploy to inspire people with no imagination or incentive to de-clutter. The only time anything in my mess sparks joy is when it is all cleaned up and put away. This got me to thinking it must be time for me to de-clutter and I can do it without having to trick myself into thinking that cleaning up is something more than it really is. My method is simple and logical - put away/throw away/clean. Never get bogged down mulling over any items for very long - clutter is best dealt with swiftly and ruthlessly. Once I have decided to go for it - I choose specific areas I can clean relatively quickly. Shooting a time lapse keeps me on track and is rather rewarding to watch when it is all done.

I can relate to that! Working in chaos. My problem is that it doesn't stay de-clutter for very long.
