(Updated the challenge for the final two weeks. It's now decluttering ONLY) The plan: 1. Find somewhere to store my Loki costume. It is lying on my desk right now, and preventing the desk from being used for anything else. I can likely store it in one of the wall drawers that I cleared out last time. I should really do this because it's only a matter of time until my cat jumps on the desk (and on the costume) and throws up on it. Because that's how cats roll. I can use a portion of a cardboard tube to hold the shoulders of the Loki coat in the proper shape while it's stored in a wall drawer also. I have my yoga mat doing the same job right now, so doing this will also free up my yoga mat. 2. Go to Michael's (I have coupons!) and buy additional foam heads. I need two more of these so that I can store my dragon mask and Darth Maul cap properly. I need to build/buy a stand for multiple foam heads also, because they're unstable on their own. 3. Make a big pile of jewelry and put all of it in a box. It's all over the place right now, so bringing it all to the same location will make it easier to sort through everything. There are some things that I'll never wear again and will be giving away. 4. Organize comics. They are lying all over the place right now, and this makes me not want to read them because reading them would involve searching for them, getting them in the same location, ordering them, etc. I have one of the long comic boxes, I have several plastic bags to store them into, and all I need to buy are some backings/boards for them. 5. Flooring pieces under my bed. WTF. These boxes were shoved there at the end of the floor renovations over a year ago, and have been there ever since. They need to be moved elsewhere. 6. Move the IR furnace somewhere else. It's a good furnace, and it has been useful in the past--especially at this time of year. The walls in my room were re-done and re-insulated two years ago, though, and the IR furnace is no longer needed in my room. It needs to be stored somewhere else, but...where? The most logical answers would be either the computer room or the basement, but THOSE rooms are also filled with a shitton 7. The blankets in my cedar chest need to GTFO. I got a nice new cedar chest a little over a year ago, but family members decided that the space inside it was meant for storing blankets, and not actually my stuff. This cedar chest would be perfect for my fabric stash, but right now the fabric stash is inside the wall drawers...which I cannot use for my clothes. This is bullshit. I need to find somewhere else to put the blankets. 8. The great books/textbooks/binders/class notes war! Self-explanatory. 9. Figure out what to do with the HotToys Thor and Loki figures. They're just risking getting broken while they sit on my bookshelf, because cats. I might just store them inside the boxes they came in. Will update as necessary.
