Week One is drawing to a close and what a week it has been. Fall is in full swing around the country and the cleaning bug has really hit the Midwest Fall Cure participants. Most of us will do the majority of our floor cleaning (if you haven't already) in the upcoming days.
As we try to remain positive as we trudge through our clutter we are busy giving great support through our Flickr discussion boards. Midwest participants are posting away with questions about furniture, placement and layouts of rooms. Don't be afraid to ask for help along the way and we will do our best to meet your qualm with supportive answers and a pat on the back. Take this weekend to sit with a warm cup of tea and examine your surroundings. Find time to view each space in your house, even if it doesn't need any work. Sometimes just finding a new perspective can inspire your desire to get to work. Maybe it involves sitting on the floor, in a windowsill or on the radiator (with caution), but take this weekend to let the cool fall weather influence your mindset as you set out to do some major weekend warrior work.

Yay! Another Canadian! Hi, Jenny!
Floors will get their due this weekend. Why do I always procrastinate about doing the floors? It's not that onerous a job, it's not that big an apartment... but I put it off, and put it off.
I've been tidying this week. The place is looking better! Just knowing the community is here doing the same things seems to be great motivation for me. Thanks, all!
I'm not undeclared US either! Another Canadian here! I'm doing the Cure here in Toronto.
I'm not there at all and registered last week... even got a confirmation email... ce_pelle in Canada (Montreal!!!!)
Thanks! You are both now representing from Canada!
