OMG last night, my daughter pulled the conversation card at dinner. She asked "what's something you'd go back in time and tell yourself." Maybe I'm just not over it, but my first thought was "I'd go back to the day I got my braces off and tell myself to put my retainer away because soon, your dog will chew it up and you'll take the money to buy concert tickets instead of replacing it and in 25 years you'll have to get braces again!"

LOL! My son's orthodontist actually asked us if we had dogs. When we answered yes, she told us that for some reason some dogs are just drawn to these and will chew on or even eat them! So YES, it IS a thing. She even warned us that they some dogs are SO persistent that my son should put it in the container AND a drawer, otherwise, it was very likely the dog might get it 😆

Well, despite testing positive for Covid last night, I’m having a low symptom load so I sprang into action to get this done today. My bedside table is not cluttered BUT, the large jewelry box that sits on top of it hasn’t been sorted in years (literally). I cleaned it up and tossed a good number of items - maybe 15-20 - and set some aside to go to the donation box - maybe another 25-30. Sounds like a success to me! Thanks Cas, I’m staying in the game!

I’ve been wearing a mouthguard religiously for 20 years. This habit works for me…. The second I get out of bed I walk to the bathroom, put it in its case with a denture tablet and add water. Put it in the closet and it’s there when I get ready for bed that night. (I have two large dogs who would also eat it if I left it out)

My wife(45+) had cataract surgery last year. We opted for the "expensive" lenses that act similar to tri-focals. $5000 an eye! TOTALLY WORTH IT! First time she hasn't needed glasses since the fourth grade. We just got rid of 8 reading glasses, and 4 old pair of glasses from off her bedside table. Drawers hide a lot! (Not to mention the ones off her desk, and our bathroom counter, and the emergency ones in the vehicles...)

On the days Cass was decluttering her closet I thought there is no way I have any pj's, socks or underwear to declutter, but I went and looked again. Sure enough I was able to get rid of 2 more pj bottoms, 2 pair of underwear and a half dozen pair of socks.

Not only is the tray table back in the kitchen where it belongs but my actual night table is decluttered as well. I tossed more than 5 things but only took 15 minutes and I’m done.

It took me a couple weeks to get there but I have kept my bedroom dresser & nightstands clear since 2022! My bedroom used to be the dumping ground until I decided it would no longer be. I’m proud of myself for staying up on it daily - it makes a huge difference in my mood at bedtime and also when I wake up. My son loves relaxing in my room because it’s free of clutter, which for the first 45 years of my life, would never have been true. All thanks to Cas! Through her, I heard about Dawn & Dana and then everything changed! Cas, you are changing lives! Keep up the good work!

I thought mine was bad - she ate one pair of progressive glasses (but not the glass, thankfully) and a pair of Birkenstocks (not the buckle), some flooring, the edge of my sofa and some other furniture, some drywall, and a few towels and clothes, but she has settled down now, after two years. I hope yours does too! Those first couple of years can be VERY expensive. Oh, and P. S., I did give her the expensive chew sticks (collagen chews, bully sticks, nylabones, etc.) but she preferred the other items! P. P. S. I love how you have broken this big, overwhelming job into little easy tasks. It just seems so do-able now. I don't know what took me so long!

Your dog is not the only one. I used to have a dog growing up who would chew up my mouth guards and also my friends. What worked best was putting the mouth guard up in the medicine cabinet. Someplace up high definitely! But the medicine cabinet or somewhere in the bathroom up high is best so you can take it out right before brushing teeth.

We keep mouthguards behind a bathroom cabinet door so no problem there, however, our male dog has a sock obsession so they cannot be left out or they will end up with holes. He also takes a toy with him every time he goes outside, lays it down and goes about his business. Our other pooch is obsessed with catching lizards outdoors as if it is her prime mission in life. She also goes crazy with excitement when we spray the backyard hose and wants to be right in the middle of the spray. One of them did crunch my eye-glasses as a puppy shortly after I purchased them.

The mouth guard story is so relatable because my dog will eat my husband’s ear plugs if he leaves them on his nightstand. He had to start putting them on the bathroom counter in a little tray. I know they make denture holders so maybe try 1 of those for the mouth guard. I’m loving the 30 day decluttering videos. Thanks Cas for sharing and helping so many of us.

Ready? On your mark, get set, let's declutter! 🎉 Jewelry, medicine, one lost used ear plug, two dirty tissues...... I try to trash them every day but I sometimes fail... honestly I don't know how to make it better for now. My husband is always picking on me for my used tissues, I found a way in my office: I placed a small trash can with lid that I empty when it is full. I have the habit to use it more than once (when I only have a quick dry sneeze, I feel like I should use the other clean half in the next couple hours... grew up in poverty and my mother had that habit to save money), am I a weirdo? 🥳Probably! Am I alone? I don't think so! Any thoughts friends, please? 🙏 Anyway, I successfully declutter and deep clean my bedside table about once every month, and that is a good achievement. But I wonder if I should do it every week... if I can find the power to do it. I will ask the ADHD god about that! 😅

Yes, it's looking a little better around here, 1 area at a time, but I think the real value of this challenge is in building a new habit of doing just a little bit every day. I'm in the midst of some major "take my house back" decluttering also, but if I can get in the habit of doing 5 minute decluttering tasks, I'll be able to keep my house in its new (hopefully) decluttered and organized state! (Hope springs eternal.)

I love this 5 mins 5 items. My nightstand is a disaster. So this is good for me. Every month 5 mins 5 items.

My friend's dog also tried to eat my retainer at a sleepover in the 5th grade but thankfully he never made it through the case! Gotta keep them in a drawer, opposable thumbs for the win

We don't have bedside tables but I usually have a roll of tp as Kleenex and eye drops on the nearby window sill. As for pets eating dental gear, I had one dog as a kid who was obsessed with chewing on toothbrushes so we very quickly had to learn to not leave them on the counter top. Though it was an easier thing to deal with than my cat who was obsessed with chewing on guitar strings.

put a clear shelf that sticks under your wall above your nightstand where you can barely see it or maybe one of those little clear drawer things from the dollar tree to keep your mouth guard in

My dog never did that, our thing was always kids at school having to go through the lunch trash because they would take out their retainers while they ate, wrap them in a napkin, and ultimately throw them away with their trash! My dog now has only ever chewed ONE thing, and of course, it was my daughter's FAVORITE horse toy!!

Here I am! Day 10. I was out all day ( unusual). I just watched this video. I am tired. So, I have two bedside tables one on each side of the bed. So, being tired I managed to get one completely done, cleaned and put back what was needed. Tomorrow, I will be home all day and I will do the other one, plus day 11 thing. I am 71 so I need a little grace here Cass.

Hey, remember, it's not a "do the task completely" challenge. It's "Find FIVE things that will leave your home (trash or donate)." And only work for 5 minutes -- set a timer, or replay the day's video while you work. When the 5 minutes are up, put things in the trash, put away items that live elsewhere, and you're DONE. The second table can wait for another day. The space will look better than it did! I'm already thinking I should start the 30 days again on October 1.

@@JILLCritterologist thank you! This challenge has been so helpful! I can get stuff done, and quit after 5 minutes so good.

Finding 5 things on top of my night stand is not possible. I only keep essentials there so I am tackling 1 desk drawer instead. Loved the story. Thank you for the inspiration. Each day I have been taking my 5 things and putting them in my trunk to donate. It felt great today to take more than 50 items to donate.

Yep. We were told by the orthodontist YEARS ago. that dogs love retainers. Has something to do with the saliva. We lost a few and the kids learned to never leave them where the dog could get them. PUT THEM AWAY. :)😊

I have a bunk bed style loft bed. My bf and I made a little shelf to hang off the railing. There are at any time at most three items up there, mostly because I don't allow myself a phone charger up there. So I don't naturally hang out there, but at my desk underneath my bed where the charger is. :))

My in-laws lived an 8 hour drive away and used to visit us for several weeks at a time. My father-in-law would take out his false teeth and leave them laying around the house (gross 🤢). I warned him our beagle would get them one day and sure enough he did. He took them out to the backyard and chewed them to pieces.
