We are FLYING in Zone 4 this week: The MASTER Bedroom

Zone 4 Mission #5 Friday
Dear Friends,

Yesterday we had a panty raid and today we are going to raid our bedroom of any clothes that we need to get rid of. Today we are going to play beat the clock. I want you to get a large trash bag - Set the timer for 15 minutes, throw open a dresser drawer or closet and start tossing anything that you do not love, does not fit or just needs to go away. You know what these things are, you just haven't given
yourself the time to do it. You are going to shove these things into the bag as fast as you possibly can and when the bag is full take it to the trunk of your car to drop off at a donation center. This is not a game of will I wear this, do I like it. This is toss, toss, toss as fast as you can. When you set a timer and try to fill the bag before the timer goes off it is amazing what you will let go of. Also if you are holding on to your husband's old clothes that he no longer wears and you think you will - forget about it! Toss them! it is one thing to grab one of your husbands t-shirts to wear - it is quite another to hang onto all of his old sweat shirts and t-shirts that he no longer wants! Toss them! Ready, Set ...GO!

Zone 4 Mission #4 Thursday

Dear Friends,

Look out because today is going to be a tough one! We are going on a panty raid! LOL! What I mean is that you are to throw open those dresser drawers and start flinging all those old, stretched out, worn out panties and bras that are just taking up space. You know the ones that you wear when you forget to do the laundry! The ones that you would just pass out from embarrassment if anyone knew you were wearing them. The bras that are held together with safety pins have got to go. If you still have nursing bras and your youngest child is in elementary school - fling them! Throw them away! You would not want to wear someone else's underwear - do not tell yourself that you are going to give these to so and so that you know and really does not mind - get rid of them today! Throw them away! You all know what should be in those drawers and what you have been shoving to the back of the drawer. Today is the the day! Do not keep anything that does not fit, that you do not love or that you would not want to be embarrassed by!

Make it a point to replace a few pairs of panties or a new bra or two when you can. Stop putting yourself last! You deserve nice undergarments - no one feels good in worn out, stretched out clothes.

Zone 4 Mission #3 Wednesday

Dear Friends,

Back in the bedroom we go! Your mission for today is to stand in the door way of your bedroom and just look around. What do you see that just does not belong in this room? Have you stashed stuff in here that does not belong but you have grown used to it just being a part of the room? Grab a trash bag and a laundry basket. Empty your bedroom trash can and also toss anything that is just plain trash in the room that does not need to be there. Then, set a timer for 5 minutes and toss things into the laundry basket that have a home someplace else in the house - just not the bedroom. Once the timer beeps, take your basket and deliver the items to where they belong.
We are decluttering our bedrooms!

Bonus challenge - do another 5 minutes!!

Zone 4 Mission #2 Tuesday

Dear Friends,

As we continue on our Zone Super Fling Boogie we are going to tackle our night stands in our bedrooms. Now we may have done this recently in this zone - but this time you are going to get serious! Same drill as yesterday - The first thing to do when decluttering is to throw away anything that is trash. Things that are just claiming space - toss them!. The next thing is to look at what is left on your night
stands - Do you need it? Do you love it? Do you use it? Do you have anything on your dresser that needs to be put away someplace else? Pick up, put away, then Pick up and put in a give away box that you will donate later. Do you need to set a timer for 5 minutes and clean out the drawers in the night stands? Go For it! We are Flinging and FLYing!

Zone 4 Mission #1 Monday

Dear Friends,

Today our mission is to declutter the tops of our dressers. The first thing to do when decluttering is to throw away anything that is trash. Those receipts, post it notes, etc that are just claiming space - toss them!. The next thing is to look at what is left on your dresser - Do you need it? Do you love it? Do you use it? Do you have anything on your dresser that needs to be put away someplace else? Pick up, put away, then Pick up and put in a give away box that you will donate later.

All you have to do for this mission is the dresser! That is it!
