This week’s decluttering area is super small – just one cupboard. Originally I wanted to do all the upstairs bathroom cabinets, and I was upset with myself that I had left it to last minute to do and was running out of time.

Then I remembered I set out to declutter my home in 52 weeks because I can take small steps that way. Last week was a hard week on me emotionally, and it meant that a lot didn’t get done and now this week I feel super stressed. Stress is a choice, however, and I choose instead just to do what I can, there is always next week to tackle more.

So I emptied out just the top bathroom cupboard of its contents, and I gave it a good wipe down.

The oddest thing I found in the bathroom cupboard was this box of Miracle Gro, neither my hubby nor I  even remember buying it.

When I was done, this was all that was left. The top shelf is empty. Oh and that heater back there, I have a great reason for it being there I promise.  Our home’s heating system can’t keep up during the frigid Indiana winter days, so I help it along with space heaters placed in rooms we use most, including the bathroom.

What area of your home did you declutter this week?
