Have you acquired too much stuff? Do you have so much stuff that you have to pay to put some of it in storage? Has the time come in your life where you need to clean up some of the clutter in your house? What is one item that you probably have waaaay to many of?
I had way too many clothes. However because over the last 3 years I have lost weight I took the clothing and donated most of it to charity. I have two more bags to donate. I will take them either to AABR or the Salvation Army this summer. I have overcome stuff accumulation by doing extensive Spring cleaning for the past 2 years and have gotten rid of a lot of stuff. I have lived in my apartment nearly 19 years so you know I have all kinds of things in here. Being a packrat I had excuses as to why I had to keep certain things. However since 2008 I have become more comfortable in throwing things away. In fact now I get a good feeling when I fill up those large green garbage bags and take them downstairs for maintenance to dispose of. I now have a neater, cleaner, roomier apartment.
