I'm a sentimental and a crafter, and I find it so hard to let go of things that have a connection to some memorie or someone in my past, or letting go of all those goodies that I just may be able to re-purpose into something else in the future...truth is, you're right. I don't need to hold on to all those things, I need to de-clutter my closets, my home, and my thoughts. Thanks for the lovely reminder that..."I am enough."

This week I had had enough and declared it all had to go! We live in a small fairly neat house, but the picking up I had to do, and I knew all my cupboards were full no matter how good I was at storing the stuff. Filled 12 medium garbage bags yesterday and cleaned out spots that normally dont get cleaned (linen cupboards, behind the piano, under beds, girls hiding places etc. Deep cleaning is a hard process (it makes a bigger mess than you started with!?! and takes a long time) but I feel great today!!This Girl loves to Talkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04810963456640254875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6777506989220366832.post-65491967183162086832013-03-23T16:39:21.504-04:002013-03-23T16:39:21.504-04:00How absolutely beautiful!

The house will go on the market in a few weeks and we'll be moving to our tiny place in VT. We are getting rid of SO MUCH STUFF! We've taken bags to the thrift shop, Goodwill, the transfer station and we've loved Freecycle. It is hard, hard work, letting go of years of family stuff, but it's incredibly freeing at the same time. <br /><br />It's good to remember that "the important things in life are not things". We look forward to living more simply.<br /><br /> I am glad you are feeling the freedom too, Maya. xoKaren L Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984916879007662549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6777506989220366832.post-21393538113762700092013-03-22T15:49:18.435-04:002013-03-22T15:49:18.435-04:00wonderful...

I purged like crazy before we left but there still isn't enough space for all our stuff. It is truly liberating to be free of what weighs us down, but what I am parting with now is the sentimental stuff. It is hard work.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03188476544504998003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6777506989220366832.post-70715606231403523262013-03-22T12:41:34.112-04:002013-03-22T12:41:34.112-04:00Yes!
