consolidate my belongings

what happens when you advertise items as “free”. We’re not making any money, but it is saving us from having to pay someone to haul stuff away. Got rid of things I could have sworn were just junk…

I will consider this done by the end of the month, once the move is complete.

• at least one big box of book
• one more bag of clothes
• some sheets and towels
  and maybe some other stuff.

I’m selling or getting rid of some furniture, electronics, and other things too. I mean I sure hope I am!

I have a book problem. I love them and have a terrible time getting rid of books that have been my friends. I have learned this from my parents.

• I think I’ll read again
• Were given to me by someone special
• I particularly admire and want in my collection because I think they are exemplary books or because I want to be able to share them with friends and family in the future _{have to allow this!}
• Will be useful references for my future schooling/ work, such as I understand it
• AND/OR were particularly meaningful or life-changing books for me.

I suspect I’ll be pretty loose in my enforcement of these terms, but I hope I’ll start to consolidate a little. I don’t want to bring an entire library’s worth of books into my bf’s place when I move in! _{I’m such a book nerd!}

Sounds like I may be moving. This is a great opportunity to consolidate and get rid of some stuff. I didn’t really do that during my last move because it was so rushed and because I had so much clutter, there was no time to go through everything and it all just came with. This time, I have my decluttering project complete and I should be able to focus on what else I can get rid of and not just take all my junk with me. Look forward to SIMPLIFYING my life a little bit.
