3.5 hours ago I started a decluttering project. Once I week I do some type of decluttering – a closet, a drawer, sometimes a bigger project like the shed, sometimes a smaller project like going through old magazines. I did not give myself a deadline but accepted it would be an on-going thing. It took 2.5 years before I began to see a big difference, but I can see it now and am happy with the results. Not once have I regretted tossing or donating anything. My “deep winter” project is to transfer as much paper stuff in my house as possible to an electronic media – patterns, handbooks for appliances, tax documents, recipes, etc. Paring down and decluttering has been, in a strange way, liberating. I pretty much know where everything is in my house now. I couldn’t say that 3.5 years ago.
