I agree and the other thing i want to try to do more is to RETURN things when they aren't EXACTLY what i want or

how they fit...................i tend to put them aside and not go through the hassele of a return....going to definitely return the stuff i would prob end up not using......................

Every January as I put my holiday stuff away I try and organize and eliminate things I no longer use or want.  Actually,  I start after Xmas organizing.  I begin with the downstairs and then move to the upstairs.  This year I need to hit more places.  

I have boxes in my trunk for different places I will be donating to.  As I sort I put an item in the box.  When full I drop off.  

I did good job this summer moving stuff out but I need to keep at it.  By the time the  weather gets nice I want to be done with the inside and move to the garage. 

Where does the time go?  I work full time but I'm afraid once I retire I will find excuses to put things off.  

Now I need to get my husband to let go too,  but I'm just as guilty.  

When my sister died a year ago we needed to help get her house ready to sell.  It was a big job and so much stuff for one person.  Ever since I have been on a mission to declutter and organize more.
