Clump #231: Start clearing out younger daughter’s room; day 27 of the 30-day challenge.
I’m coming down to the finish of the get-ready-for-compay challenge. Yikes. It’s time to start cleaning out the rooms where my sisters-in-law will be staying. This will have to suffice as a “before” photo for our younger daughter’s room. I don’t want to embarrass her. She spent a lot of time doing a miraculous job of clearing out the basement. She also put a bunch of old photos in albums, and this is the corner where she kept the supplies. I can’t fault her too much for leaving her room in less than optimal condition, given how much she helped out.
A dear reader of this blog sent me the following quote, which really sums up the essence of Clump A Day:
A small daily task, if it be really daily, will beat the labours of a spasmodic Hercules. –Anthony Trollope
Right now, even a spasmodic Hercules sounds good to me … but I continue to clump step by step by step …

I like the photo of the steps with the rocks. Reminds me of another mythological figure: Sisyphus (although he only had one stone).
Such a very apt comparison! This project has certainly felt Sisyphean … progress, then discouraging relapses. Life.
Howdy! This post couldn’t be written any better! Looking at
this article reminds me of my previous roommate! He continually kept
preaching about this. I’ll send this post to him. Pretty sure he’ll have a great read.
Many thanks for sharing!
Howdy to you, too! And thank you so much for this great comment. I haven’t been posting in a long while, so you’ve given me a bit of fire-in-the-belly to get started again.
