Uncluttering project 1


I had to pick a room in my house to start with, and I ended it up picking my room and out of my bedroom the first spot I picked was the closet. It is not as easy as it seems to unclutter something that has been cluttered for so long. It is getting better to get my room, but there is still more work to do in the closet, because the years of piling stuff and more stuff is not going to go away in a minute or in a day or even days it might take me a while but I will get there until that part of the project is complete. I shouldn't feel defeat I am fighting a war towards clutter, and some wars may last a while, but for sure I am going to win this war and that is what I see at the end of the tunnel the awesomeness of unclutterness and more organization in my life. People it is not easy but it is not impossible. Still the mental work involving of why you piled on to those items, so you won't repeat the same offense again. The correction in this is the psychology behind those items that are still in your closet. I took a minor break first, because it was overwhelming;secondly, my friends father died surprisingly and I really want to be there to support her, because I understand the pain of losing a parent; Lastly, my grandma lost her brother he died of a heart attack. While there are cloudy days in this people's lives due to their lose I will just pull out my umbrella when it begins to rain, because this are important ladies in my life one is my friend and the other one is my grandma.

Project 2 Sewing



I had the pleasure of making an outfit for my Goddaughter for her birthday, and my sister sent me some pictures. I have to thank my sister for sending me the pictures of my work, and I need to thank my mother-in-law for helping me with this tenacious project. It was a fulfilling project, because I put a smile on a strong lil lady.

Uncluttering the mind


I am in the process in my life to unclutter items from my life, but first I have to start with the uncluttering of my mind. My goal for this week is to write is the vision of what I see my life. First, where do I see myself living? I see myself living here in Knoxville,TN. It is a good place to raise my family and I love the community here. How would I earn my income? I would be so pleased to earn an incoming by doing the stuff that I love for starters my photography. I need to be less nice and more business smart, because I can not give my work for free or take myself for granted that is for sure. Secondly, improving and the second thing that involves my sewing and maybe combining my two passions and bringing some fashion in the lives of amazing women, and the beauty of my camera lens to show those amazing women with my products. How would my days look like? Organized knowing where I can find my photography stuff and my sewing stuff, because it will make both of my jobs so much easier. What would I do for fun? THis would be a simple question to answer, but I have never asked myself that before. I guess what I would find fun to do is go somewhere in the beach where there is a nice breeze and in a shady spot and run a good book with something cold to drink I think I would find that fun. What would you do more of? Increasing my knowledge in the two items that are my passion photography and sewing, believe if there was a school of fashion design near by I would be there in a heartbeat, but both of the nearest fashion design schools are so far that it would be hard for me, due to the fact that I have smaller children. Maybe when they have grown up I don't know maybe I will cross that bridge when it gets to it. What would I do less of? The continous picking up in my house, because there is always a mess my house it is embarrassing inviting friends over, because there is always a mess somewhere in my house. That is why I deciding to work on this 52 week plan of uncluttering my life and my household. Let's see where this part of my journey it will take me.
