A pack rat no longer!

Now that we aren't able to get into the closet easily I realize that I have too many clothes that I don't wear or don't need. When they started working on the bathrooms I grabbed some clothes that I liked and kept them in the spare room closet because it was too difficult to crawl over the rubble to get to the closet. So I got rid of three huge trash bags full of clothes - jeans, PJ's, pants, shirts. I won't even miss those things because obviously if I haven't worn them since the renovations started then I really won't ever wear them. It feels like such a relief to rid myself of all this extra baggage. Tonight I hope to go through my shoes and purses and then maybe I'll tackle the kitchen.

I am a huge pack rat so doing this is a big step. I want to simplify our life and unclutter our home this year and I'm off to a good start. Do I really need 10 hoodies and 15 pair of pajamas? I think not.
