Doom Boxes

Judgement-Free Zone - how many do you have and what’s in them? This is another ADHD thing - starting projects, then stuffing them into boxes to finish later…but we rarely do… 🙃😂 I have soooo many - tshirts I wanted to decorate, robots I started, painting, home decor, etc….

I used to keep every receipt from anywhere since 2018- when I started earning my own money regularly. i thought it might be helpful for keeping up with my finances (even if it was sth like toiletpaper, a bottle of juice or the bagel I bought at the bakery. I actually needed it when splitting paid errands while still living at home- but was already terrible at keeping up with that- instead of doing it right after every shop tour I sometimes waited the whole 4 weeks to get back my money. 💸💸 It did not really help for having organized finances but instead was like an army of chaos monsters popping up everywhere cause I like to put stuff in random places. And when I collecting the receipts, they built small piles of task pressure terrorists, reminding me that I still have to sort (! Not even talking of calculating anything here🧮- just sorting into reused and labeled by month envelopes. 🚫Which of course I had to start keeping them beforehand so that I would habe enough for my „system“ Of every letter I received, and often did not put away properly I would in any case keep the envelope to, cause I would need them eventually when monthly envelopes need to be stocked up again. 🤯💥💢Anyways..Yesterday it really bugged me so much that small useless pieces of crap are lying everywhere 😵🌪️and are potentially unhealthy because they pollute the air in your home with toxic dust/microplastics! 🌬️🎊So I activated rage mode and started throwing of ALL the partly sorted receipts back till 2021- I guess it might have been 300. every icky single receipt. And now only the ones sorted in envelopes are left to be looked through. ☝️😲I wont keep collecting receipts! (Unless important/or if they remind me of a special memory- bit in this case I will only keep them until I wrote it down in my 📖 diary..which I haven’t started yet…gosh I’m just about to establish another „system“..) 🙅‍♀️However- to keep clean from piles of paper scraps I swore this to my self, because they are not worth the time needed to sort through. 🏃‍♀️ Time is precious! ⏱️🧐 For ADHDers even more ❣️

Literally every piece of paper my kids have ever brought home from school. It all lives in a pile on my counter for months until I put it in a box and shove it in a closet.

A suitcase, large plastic box, about 5 bags, and at least 2 small boxes full of fabric and clothes for mending/creating. 4 unfinished canvas' that I WANT to finish and a few I no longer care for. A few notebooks with the beginnings of novels. Carport with 4 boxes of "stuff" and all the makings of 3 cushioned large square seats, as well as a small timber table and 2 plant stands to be repainted, and 2 bikes in need of repairs, plus loose timber, 2 pallets, and a bunch of gardening things. A storage space the size of a single garage FILLED with boxes and bags containing paperwork, crafts, repairs, books, plus garden supplies and furniture, you name it I've probably got it 🤦‍♀️

Drawers under my bed. Out of sight, out of mind. And Sometimes in the trash.

I hear you. Same thing here. Somehow I am heavy on decluttering, and I dismiss the project and throw them away (literally, I put everything in recycling boxes outside the house).
