Having been in our house for over a year, we finally unpacked the last boxes last weekend. It is so nice to have all that space back in our house! It makes a great place for Munchkin to play. Plus, I loaded up the back of our van and drove it to the local secondhand shop—so nice to unload all that stuff we’re never going to use!
We do still have some work to do, but getting this far is so great.
our move is now barely over a week away. We condensed our clothes from 2.5 closets to one, throwing and giving away more than 4 garbage bags’ worth of old, used, out-of-style, and never-fit-my-style-but-someone-gave-me clothes. Some of my stuff especially even still had tags on! Eeek.
3 weeks away! Eeeek! Still have way too much stuff.
However, My Man and I made progress last night, sorting 6 cubic feet of papers that had accumulated in the past 4 months. We filed, shredded, and trashed for 45 minutes – and now we can use the floor around our dining room table! Yay us!
I grew up a packrat and I want to change! My Man has really helped me let go of a lot of stuff. We’re living in an apartment now, but we’re moving to a house in January, and I refuse to keep hauling this junk around with me! I will sort through it before January 10.
