New Year's Resolution??

OK - here it is - Yes, I 'sorta' made a NY Resolution...I am a pack-rat, really I am and I made a vow that I was going to DE-CLUTTER my house. I am taking one drawer at a time and getting my stuff in order. Do you know what the dictionary says about STUFF - it is trash- to fill in - to cram - yes that is what I do. Every drawer I have is crammed and filled with stuff. Last night I started and to my amazement, I found some really good stuff. One was my birth certificate, three crystal dishes that belonged to my grandmother and an arrow head....I have started putting all the discard stuff together and this should be a good start for a garage sale (what do you think Lindsey?). I am determined to stay on this until I have all my craft stuff together, all my pictures put in order, ready to scrapbook, and most of all, finding lost treasures. I feel last night was good therapy for me and besides, I even moved furniture so that was great. I love rearranging.. It makes the whole room look different.
Getting back to 'stuff'. Try this - one drawer at a time...it really makes you feel good. Our lives are alot like my drawers - they are stuffed with things that we don't need. Last de-clutter our lives as we go. What a wonderful feeling we can have just my getting rid of that stuff that is making us feel full of things in our lives that are not needed... Take care and have a blessed day... 1/23/2009
