Simplify.

As I’m currently living in a flat with 3 other people, for the most part I just have my room to fit most of my stuff in so I’ve been seriously getting rid of things that I don’t need.

Today I’ve got rid of a bunch of books, to my Mum and R & I may yet donate some if R doesn’t want them.

I’ve also given to my flatmate a cd & a cd :D

So my room looks a little better, will moreso as I keep going.

is canceled.

just need to be thrown out!

But I also now have a plan for getting the books I don’t want to my Mum’s as she seems to think that she wants them. Yay.

I´ve been decluttering and organizing things lately, to simplify my life. Just this morning I cleaned my make up bag and threw away this lip gloss that is leaking and making everything else dirty/sticky. I really don’t need this. The other day I cleaned two drawers, than re-organized them so I have one for myself and hubby has one for him. Much easier to find things now. :)

I’ve decided there are a few more things that I might as well just donate as I don’t wear them and I find it less simple to try to sell them.

It kind of disturbs me how often I find more old papers and records that I can get rid of but I did this yesterday and now my records are looking neat & streamlined :)

1. A got a part time job that supports me & makes my afternoons free to pursue things I love.
2. I actually enjoy that job!
3. I work a lot closer to home but do still commute. I compromise by living closer to my friends and would not like to live in the city where my job is.
4. I’ve reconciled a friendship that was difficult in the past few weeks.
5. My relationship with R is going nicely :)

I donated a few books today that I’m not going to read again.
Also some decorative “things” (I really don’t know what they are called, maybe tassles) that I cannot see myself actually using.

Unfortunately I’ve just bought a couple more books but they are ones that will be of much greater value to me :D

I need to focus on just a few projects at the moment & also upon what is really important to me in life.

Things I’ve given up on, just for now, not forever :D

Sort:

1. Books – I have too many!
2. Misc clutter that doesn’t have a home.
3. My shelf in the pantry. It’s rather chaotic! (Mostly because I am too short for it & just throw stuff up there…)

Recently I used my keyboard stand to construct a rail for my clothes to hang on & this is actually working really well. My room doesn’t have a wardrobe or storage so this is great! Makes things more simple!
