Zoom through your clutter

April 2020

After the novelty and shock of staying home settles in, consider using this time at home to replenish our spirits. Here’s my current ‘schedule’ and so far, so good.

1. Daily morning walk

2. Plenty of knitting and Netflix

3. Plenty of Zoom meetings to stay connected

4. Replenishing my (and my parents’) food supply, when really needed.

5. Walking my 15 year old dog who is still hanging in there.

I’m also sleeping in a little later, but I’m also awake more often during the night having some crazy dreams… but knowing I can sleep in is quite the luxury. Here’s to positivity and making the best of whatever situation we’re in. And if you have the dreaded virus, please rest and do not pay attention to anything I say. We need you well again soon!

Zoom through your clutter

My daily life has changed dramatically and I know I’m not the only one. The Number One change is that I am social distancing in my home and no longer working outside my home. Thankfully, my family has not directly been affected by the virus (yet) and thankfully, I love being home. But the reality is that the business I’ve been building since 2004 is now on pause. My wonderful team of organizers who have also been working with Aim 4 Order clients are now in their homes. To be able to help hundreds of people each year is my ‘high’… and now, Aim 4 Order has to rethink how it’s going to keep helping people in need of organizational services. Here is what I’m able to offer at this time:

Virtual organizing – You can schedule a 30 minute or a 60 minute organizing session via FaceTime or Zoom and we can STILL tackle any room in the house. I can see and guide you as we declutter your area in need. Email me if you would like to pursue this very affordable option.

Zoom classes in April – I’m very excited to announce that I will be offering classes where we can gather as a group and learn how to attack certain areas of the home. Please click hereto sign up for the Zoom class(es) that sound like a good fit for you. After you sign up, Zoom call in information will be emailed to you at least 2 days before each class is held.

Phone consults – If the idea of me seeing you ‘live’ is not a comfortable idea, then please think about scheduling a phone consult. From my earliest days as an organizer, I have helped people from far away places, by phone, and we are always thrilled with the results. Email me if you would like to pursue this option.

And just like the shoemaker’s children, my home has some decluttering needs, all of which I am not chomping at the bit to do. BUT, so far, I have decluttered the top and bottom of my lazy Susan corner cabinet….see before and after pictures of the bottom below. And, I decluttered and organized my laundry room cabinets and am pleased to tell you that nothing falls out when I open the doors now. YAY for me.

Please note – most donation places are shut down so if possible, find a place to stash donations in your home until the world reopens. There are some places in individual communities who may still be collecting and you can probably find out by posting to your local “Next Door” chat.

Feel free to reach out if you’re interested in making some progress – looking at the bright side, this is a golden opportunity to take care of business at home.

Stay safe and be well! Sending virtual hugs to all,

Cind
