  • How to convice your dad to get rid of some stuff ?

    Hi, my family and i have made a plan to tackle the house and clutter we own. Me and my mom have agreed to it and have stuck to it. But my dad is a different story. He says that he agrees but he hasn't even tried to do anything in the past 2 weekends. He say, "He's on Break". Well I understand that you can be on break for a couple minutes but not all day.

    My mom is Pretty clean and keeps all her stuff put away. I admit that i have a lot of stuff that i need to go through and get rid of . But my dad is the worst. Im not trying to sound like a hypocrite but he has to much stuff. He has bins of books in all the storage rooms, his room, and the attic. Also boxes of pens, stacks of shirts, and piles of shoes. He literally built a rack for his shoes and now it sits in the master bedroom. A new pile is As starting beside the rack. AHHH! Also he is a handyman so he has 3 to 10 of every kind of tool there is. Its crazy. I want to help him but when i talk about it he says that he wants to get rid of it but that also he doesn't want to deal with it right now and to leave him alone.

    I know he tired after the work we but im tired after school and im still cleaning. Please help me id You have parents or spouses like this. Or if you yourself have overcome you stuff and gotten rid of it tell me what you did, how you did it, and what convinced you. I just really want the House to be clean so i can invite friends over and not be embarrassed. We are no where near hoarding because stuff isn't all over the floor and we don't keep trash and stuff like that. But i mean every drawer is packed and stuff is on the tables and stuff. Also the storage room and the garage are the worst. But anyway I would Great appreciate your help. Also if you have any organizing/ de cluttering tips of your own would you please share them :)! Thanks so much and have a great day, bye :)

  • How do I organize my stuff? :)?

    I have so much stuff and its getting out of control so i have chosen to have aa garage sale. I am going to be selling a lot of stuff. So I have many questions. I would like someone to try and answer them all for me thanks :) I appreciate a good detialed answer but anything you know or have experience with, tell me about it. Ok so first of all how do you part with stuff that you know you dont need but want to keep. I have this problem( I get it from my dad haha) so i need to know how. If i was being honest then i would say that I am spolied. I am the "child"(teen) of the family ( main family and other ( cousins,aunt,uncle etc.)) and everyone spoils me. Thats the truth so over the years i have collected a lot of stuff and i want to be responsible and get rid of some of it. Also for what i do keep, I need to know how to organize it. Can you tell me how to organize books, Make up, Jewelry, stuffed animals, barbies ( in box, i collect them, dont judge), clothes, extra blankets, art stuff ( pencils,pens, craft kits), Electronics ( wii games, dvd's), ordamentsand decrative holiday buildings ( my grandma helps me collct them ), extra childish stuff ( that i dont need, help me try and get rid of it, it just has memories). Thanks you guys. Please dont tell me that i am spioled I know i am and am trying to stop it so please dont call me spolied. I know it and am stopping the situation. Thanks, again i love lond answers, so yea, Thanks i appreciate the help. I have a good size bedroom, And acouple extra spaces in the house for a couple things. So are there any selfing systems ( cheap and good quilty) that will hold stuff. My dad could buid shelves so if you know a good thing to build for organization that would be great too. Thanks again. I appreciate it. Also how do i have a good garage sale. Thanksfor everything. Ok I guess im done. Sorry its so long haha. Any thanks, bye :).

  • How can i get this puppy (please read) !?

    I have been wanting a new puppy ( perferably a dachshund) for monthes. We saw an ad in the newspaper for a 150$ dachshunds female and i call the owner and i have her adress. I have no money and my mom doesnt want to spend any money. A month ago my grandma said she would buy me a important thing that was 150$ dollars but i decided not to get it because i felt bad having her pay for it. now this puppy happens to be 150$ and is their a way i could ask her for 150$ without sounding greedy. I want this puppy so bad and i would clean my grandma's house for them and pay it off. she would understand and might give it to me but i feel bad. Would it also be weird to call the owner of this pupy and make some sort of deal where i give the owner my old bike and like 80$ or something. I just want this puppy SO bad. It has red/copper short hair and its a standerd. Is their a way to convice my parents intop helping my buy it. Please help me i want it SOO BAD !
