declutter

Our move is in less than two weeks and we are really starting to pack up now. I can’t believe the amount I have accumulated but don’t need.
We have given boxes of clothes to Goodwill, books to the library, and office/art supplies to a local school. It feels great to be scaling down on all this stuff.
The hardest part is “letting go” of things that were gifts, but that we have no use for and no place to put.

I am moving in a month across the country and do not want to carry all this clutter with me (especially b/c the moving company charges by the pound). My husband and I have taken at least 6 boxes to goodwill and are filling up more to go. I realized I have been holding on to clothes from high school (ten years ago) that I never wear. I fell great every time I take out a box of unused/unwanted stuff.
