Reclaiming my "white space" from the bookshelf. ― Joining the Tidying Club!
Good evening.
I'm Rin Kiki, a woman who can't tidy up.
I have one small resolution.
Yes, it is—
\#Joining the Tidying Club!/
Moved by Shiina-san's article that I saw on note,
I also decided to seriously face "tidying up" this June.

・Reason for wanting to join the Tidying Club:
"Housework" inevitably gets pushed to the back burner between childcare and work.
But a messy room is like a mirror reflecting the restlessness in one's heart, isn't it?
I participated in Shiina-san's Tidying Club on note last time, and I thought, "Oh, I want companions too."
If I can't keep it up alone, it would be wonderful to have a "loose sense of solidarity" with #TidyingClub.
・What I want to experience by tidying up:
A little bit of white space.
A space where my favorite books and mugs can truly breathe.
I hope to have evenings in such a place, brewing tea and listening to my daughter's laughter.
・What are you bad at when it comes to tidying?
Definitely, I am the type who can't throw things away.
Thinking "I might read this again" or "It has memories..." leads to my shelves becoming "packed like sardines" before I know it.
In particular, decluttering books and documents is my Achilles' heel.
・The place I most want to tidy/clean this time:
The bookshelf!!
My bookshelf is overrun with a "for now zone" where I've crammed things between childcare and work.
Magazines I no longer read, unread books, DVDs, old planners...
I want to start here and re-examine "what I truly want to keep."
・What are you currently struggling with at home regarding tidiness or messy areas?
What I'm struggling with most are the "things without a fixed home."
Preschool handouts, toys my daughter in her "terrible twos" carried around, books I stopped reading halfway through.
These floating items hijack my daily flow (lol).
・I'd be happy if this happens in a month:
📚The bookshelf is organized,
☕a space is created where I can enjoy a moment in the evening with my favorite book and cup,
📦and my daughter's toys have found their "homes" too.
And above all,
if I can meet a version of myself who can say,
"I think I was able to face my life a little bit," and feel even a small sense of pride.
🍀Finally
Tidying up isn't just about organizing things;
it might be a "magic spell" to improve the ventilation of your heart and life.
Taking the first step.
Starting with the bookshelf.
I hope to find the perfect balance between "myself" and my "daily life."
For those of you who have also been thinking, "I've been curious about decluttering,"
why not join me casually using #DeclutteringClub?
Sincerely, Yuki
