One Bite at a Time

I guess I am on the same wavelength as many others are right now; I feel like it is time to do some organizing.

I did some de-cluttering in the house over the weekend and my thoughts have now moved on to the garage.

The garage is my elephant size project but since I have always heard the term "you can eat an elephant, one bite at a time". I think I am going to use that approach when tackling that mess.

The garage quite frankly still has stuff that got shoved in there when we moved into the house a few years ago and I have not gotten to doing much more than just moving things around and a lot of it just needs to be cleared out and donated or whatever.  

I think if I take the "one bite" approach it will make it easier to make some decisions on what to get rid of and what to keep. 

I plan to start with the wall of shelves and deal with everything on them. After that I will mentally divide the garage into about three more sections and just sort each as I get time until it is all done. By doing the garage in sections and only tackling one section a day it won't be the elephant that it seems now.

Really as I think about it, that is pretty much how I do things in the house as well, I just never thought to apply it to the garage till now. 

It will sure be nice to get the garage back and once that is done, who knows what other projects I will take on!
