I'm very curious as to how many weeks you can get rid of 35 items. In one year that would be 1820 things and I kinda doubt that you even have that much. Also is this just your stuff or are you going to make the kids and hubby get rid of their things too?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-787377491196386141.post-86430520752973656822014-09-23T08:56:19.036-05:002014-09-23T08:56:19.036-05:00This is so true!

I really notice this from volunteering at the nursing home. You have people from all walks of life coming to spend the remainder of their lives in the same looking rooms with the same limited space. Some are miserable and make very one around them miserable. Others are fountains of joy and bring joy to others. It truly is not about what you have, but your attitude. <br /><br />I am on board with you with getting rid of stuff. How much can we actually use? I think we waste way to much of our precious time on the unnecessary and not enough time on what is important.

I'm trying to live by William Morris's rule of only keeping it if it's beautiful or useful, with more focus on useful.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897718251146316249noreply@blogger.com
