How about breaking it down into something more managable?  How about doing some small things that can have a big impact? Think about spending 15 minutes dealing with a pile up instead of thinking you’ll put in hours or days.  Think shprint instead of run.  Here are some ideas to help you shpring into action.

15 Minute Shpring! – Give away some clothes  I bet there are at least half a dozen items you can just give away (toss or recycle) without even thinking about it.  What’s old, stained, torn, no longer fits? Forget about rearranging all the closet or the mudroom.  Just pull some stuff out.

15 Minute Shpring! - Archive tax stuff 
Leave 2006 in the drawer and box up the rest.  Wow!  How great to have room in a file drawer.  Put a label on it so you can find something if you need it.

15 Minute Shpring! - Recycle magazines and newspapers
Come on now, are you really going to read that January Sunday Times?  And how many
back issues of Time magazine will you look at?

15 Minute Shpring! – Toss some catalogues
How many can you let go of without looking through them?  OK, so how many can you flip through in 15 minutes and then recycle?

15 Minute Shpring! - Give away some books
The rule is "Books may only be stored vertically on bookshelves."  If they’ve been piling up horizontally on the shelves or piling up elsewhere in the house, it may be time to make some choices.  Spring means book sales at all the libraries……..

How many 15 minute shprings can you think of?  You ‘d be surprised at how much you will accomplish.  Set the timer.  And listen, if you finish your 15 minutes and want to do more, you have my permission to do another 15 minutes.
