I am working on getting rid of the clutter that I have accumulated over the years. This is very difficult to me. When I do manage to get a system going, it just gets messed all up. It is very frustrating. 4 years ago

I was not programmed to be a clutter free organized person…. it is just not me, as much as I would like to be this way. Or would I ? Would this make me anal? An A type? I am the opposite, carefree though very responsible, laid back, maybe Z type. 6 years ago

I put a small dent in my clutter today…..actually not just my clutter, a family’s worth of clutter. I cleaned out a small closet, put some clothes in a bag for the reuse it center, put all suitcases downstairs all in one spot, hung up some clothes, and vacumed…...it is a start. I am going to try and do a bit each day. 6 years ago

it’s nice crap, cool crap, or uneccessary crap.

the hardest thing to do, is pare it down. a lot of it is stuff that “i might need later”. but where do you draw the line? what can you do without? what stuff do you ‘like’ but won’t miss if it’s gone? what stuff is packed, and unused for years?

what stuff are you willing to drag around with you if you move AGAIN? 6 years ago

this is really part of “clean up my house and keep it clean ” 6 years ago
