Barbara107 is killing time at work
consumerism is over rated
Well, I still don’t consider myself a minimalist, and maybe I’ll never really be one. But I got rid of a bunch of stuff before moving and it felt really good.
I know I will still consume, but I’m trying to be smarter about it – invest in things I’ll use/that will last/that are not bulky/that are healthy/that I can share.
e I love what's happening
It has been so long since I made the decision to live a minimalistic lifestyle. I have yet to follow through with all of my original plans. I guess you could say that I am a procrastinator. Haha, I don’t guess this, this is a fact. I would actually prefer you call me The Procrastinator! Emphasis on the ‘TOR’, sounds important! But here I am procrastinating myself away from the point!
I had made a list of all of the possesions that I wished to keep… the things that I could not live without. I started the house cleaning and got rid of ALOT of junk. But I still find myself overwhelmed by the amount of stuff that I have! It’s ridiculous.
I am going to try again by making another list. Only this time I am going to follow through 100%.
I have a tiny place on purpose, so that I would get rid of more stuff. But instead I constantly feel overwhelmed by the amount of stuff in here, much of which I am not overly sentimental about. I want to minimize NOW so that it will be easier to move to a different city within the next year or so.
