Do you realize how much crap you have?

I do realize how much crap I have especially cookbooks.  They are my passion.  I love them even though I seldom use the recipes.  I just love to look at the recipes.  Maybe one day I will use them.

Yes I have some things that I need to get rid of, I just donated some clothes that I don't need; and it still look like I have more to get rid of.

Moving is bittersweet. It is nice when you get a new bigger place, but it is not fun having to move all that stuff and unpack. I moved a month ago and still have things to unpack.

I am fully aware of all my crap. And I attempt to rid myself of somethings on a regular basis.  I like jkhanson's "Does this bring me joy" approach.

Yes, I do realize how much crap I have.  Shoes and handbags are my weakness and I have way too many of each!

I have been going through all my stuff and I can't believe how much stuff I haven't used in years. Time to purge.

Not that much I get lost in paper from the mail. What to keep what to throw out.books aren't crap but my husband has tons  some are old and paper backs  about  old movie stars  .

We have a lot of stuff here but I try to throw the junk mail out every day or so.   I'm donating more items to charity.  Hubby wants to keep everything including worn out torn shirts because he wants to make a quilt one day.  That will never happen.

Yes. The last time I moved (2015), I did a big purge as I was moving out, then another one as I was moving in. Then last spring I did another huge purge. And yet, somehow, I still seem to have a lot of stuff. I dream of downgrading again (I went from a house to a townhome, and honestly, I still have a lot of unnecessary space) and getting rid of more. We live in a time of excess!

[PGS28]

Yes and I've made a practice of decluttering periodically.

[PGS28]

We really don't need as much as we think we do.  Recycling and donating our old/unused items is so relieving.
