Decluttering...I think it's a bottomless pit!

I've been retired almost 2 years and I am STILL decluttering my home! It feels like I will never get rid of all the "stuff" that has accumulated.....I keep a pretty organized house and yet this stuff has been filling all my storage space for years.

This morning, without any effort, I packed 4 large boxes of clothing for pickup tomorrow by a Vet's group. Last week, I boxed up glasses, dishes...cooking utensils...all had not been used in years! Where did it all come from?

I've given and given to local thrift stores and all household items have gone to my local Humane Society for their yard sales....one year I bagged all my dental floss thin gold bracelets and necklaces along with silver items...I could have sold it myself for cash, but decided the animals needed the money more than I did....

I am amazed at how there is always something sitting around that is unused and taking up space!

Just wish I could finally reach the point where I can say, "I'm done" and have it all cleared away!
