"De-personalizing" & "De-cluttering"

[DD]

Jsut thinking about cleaning the closet wore me out...I think I'll take a nap.

Good luck with the closet chuck.

Well, it's all out of the closet. Funny how a trip through a closet and down memory lane will motivate a diet. No mo' hushpuppies for me!! I have some clothes I really love. Guess I'll send 'em to storage until I fan fit my fat ass into 'em again. Refuse to give 'em up. :angry:

I am in the process of ditching many years of accumulated "stuff." There's two things I keep in mind as I progress:

(1) You can't 'organize' clutter! Get rid of the junk--don't "store" it.

(2) When I hit a snag about throwing something out, I envision the little chubby kid on the Ally Bank Commercial who says "It's a piece of junk!" (love it!) YouTube - Ally Bank Truck Commercial

Love that kid!! I've gotten that look from a couple of the grandkids at times.
Re: your #1: Therein lies the rub...to me, it's not junk.

Then "release the useless clutter" back into the wild.

Well, I guess I am doing the opposite in some regard. I found a closet full of clothes and got really excited! Most are still fashionable or I can make them be fashionable......and, most still fit! Wahoo~~~~~~~~~

Christmas in August!

Well, I won't say what first came to my mind....I'll just say..."that's nice". :funn:

...I know what you wanted to call her. It starts with skinny...

DD...I did the unthinkable today (should have napped) Mr. Kitty has been wanting some new white dishes and we went to Williams-Sonoma and I had a bridal shower. New flatware, too. All on HIS credit card. Life is good, but now I have to wash it all and move what's left of the old stuff out. Will I get rid of it or store it in the buffet?

Yeah, something like that.
Oh yippee!! I love new dishes. On his card to boot! I think he owes you. Hell, he should take you on a honeymoon too!!

Shall I spell I out? Speaking from the woman that may possibly ( let me get real) need help hauling my crap to the front stoop. On Tuesday a.m. from the neighbors? Yeah, FBB is out of town and it's just best that way! :roll:
