Way to go Jean.  I have to admit I am envious.  I will just have to be patient

and dematerialize a little at the time.  I just have to work on it the days

that I have the energy.  I will get it done one day though.  Wish I could find

someone to build us a smaller house in exchange for the equity in ours.  That

way I could just start from scratch.

Hi & Lovell,

I have been decluttering a very small apt., over and over down to bare bones. It

is still warm and homey but I now have nothing packed under my bed (zero-- why?

because it stays there for yrs packed), so I don't need that new scrabble game I

never used or the pilates performer still in the box. And nothing under the

dresser, (in a small apt every space is a temptation for storage of things you

won't use but just store??? Why store anything you don't use?), and nothing in

any cuboard I won't use, and everything in order. I still have to do the

computer desk drawers, the main closet again, the dresser drawers again, and

inside a credenza and then I'm done and then maintenance.

I know if I pull this or that peice of furniture out, that it will be clear and

clean under the bed or dresser, etc.

It has been a slow but sure process and ladies it's worth the effort. I gave

away expensive perfumes, brand new unused shea butter, pic frames, pics,

kitchenware, airfilter, dishes, big and small gardening pots, humming bird

feeders, (it hurt a little, but it feels so good now), anything and everything

that I wasn't using anymore or for over a yr. (From now on I am selling).

It is very calming on the nervous system. Especially important is the room I

sleep in. This room is always cleared as I go, or at least everything put away

b4 I go to bed. Actually all area I keep clear. I just need a new apt.

Love,

Jean
