When we moved to this house we downsized majorly. (we built our last house with intention of having at least 4 kids but God only blessed us with one) For some reason I had kept everything from our last house. I guess I thought I would eventually use all that stuff. But after 3 years of being in our new smaller house ....ALL that stuff was sitting in closets and in my storage room....I said, NO MORE!!!!
I already feel so much better!!!! But like I said, I am just getting started....I have not even gotten to a huge room over our gargage!!! It is packed with stuff....it will take me several days to get through that room.
Look at my SUV it was packed!! I took pictures of it because I knew my DH would never believe me that I actually took that much to Goodwill.
Anyway just thought I'd tell ya'll how hard I have been working today!!! I figured its the season for giving so I a giving it ALL away!!!!! |
Congratulation's for getting the declutter bug!....It's such a freeing feeling and in a weird way your going to feel like weight has been lifted off you....I started doing this a few months ago, I'm going slow, and I can't believe how much unnecessary stuff I bought, I found I really don't miss it when it's gone...
I repainted my living room a few months back so when I went to put everything back in there I didn't want to.... I ended up taking 6 medium sized boxes out of there of junk that was setting around on table tops and hanging on the walls....it felt great!
I'm trying to come to terms on whether to sell this antique hutch I took out of there... I love it but I have nowhere to put it.
