The Decluttering is Contagious!

I have lots of friends who are really into decluttering right now! This is fine, but I wasn't having any part of it, hating housework the way I do. And living in an apartment (after living in a 2,000 sq ft house on 6 acres), I just thought clutter was unavoidable.

Yesterday I had a little time to kill and did this:

This is the top of our dresser BEFORE:













And this is the top of the dresser AFTER:














And these are my scrapbook magazines, BEFORE:
















And these are the Magazines, AFTER:




















Okay, I fully realize that this is no big deal to most people, but I have enjoyed seeing other people's before and after pictures, so why not take and post some of my own?

Because, truly, I am waiting for some HOT WATER TO SHOWER IN!
And I'm not likely to get it, and I really have to go shower anyway. So wish me luck!
Life with two teenage daughters = cold showers.
