I agree with you 100%...as I've been trying to de-clutter all summer, I've found things I thought I didn't have anymore. Now, I sort things into the keepers, the donations, and the tossers...and you find that you really value your things much more.<BR/><BR/>-<A HREF="http://mypfblog.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">WH</A>WHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02422632604045630697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24492354.post-1157469640310638662006-09-05T10:20:00.000-05:002006-09-05T10:20:00.000-05:00I totally agree. Clutter is also oppressive, just like being in debt...bluntmoneyhttp://www.bluntmoney.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24492354.post-1157120508283683922006-09-01T09:21:00.000-05:002006-09-01T09:21:00.000-05:00I am a total clutterbug, and everything you describe I have done: I've bought something that I already because I forgot I had it, I've bought items I knew I had but couldn't find.<BR/><BR/>For those of you decluttering, you may find www.flylady.net helpful. It's run by a woman who had lots of clutter in her life and she was able to create a program for herslef and others that helps get rid of the clutter. I've been working on my clutter for a year and a half now, and it does help!Jennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24492354.post-1157085689164967172006-08-31T23:41:00.000-05:002006-08-31T23:41:00.000-05:00"My goal is to have less but to really care for and value what I have."<BR/><BR/>I am there with you, 100%. I spent the last 2 weeks decluttering the house for a yard sale. I was amazed (and a little embarassed) over the amount of stuff I forgot I had and hadn't touched in years.Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09719584466873031495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24492354.post-1157037853049372112006-08-31T10:24:00.000-05:002006-08-31T10:24:00.000-05:00I completely agree. I am actually working on an article about how much you will save if you just declutter your home. <BR/><BR/>For me, being organized just doesn't come naturally. I don't have that gene because it is a difficult process for me. <BR/><BR/>I also grew up in a home that was chaotic and see how little my family got done because of misplaced items. It is amazing how much time we waste just trying to find thing.<BR/><BR/>Congrats your efforts to reclaim your home- I hope it is successful! I am trying to tackle clutter here too!Amyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10635304837180578317noreply@blogger.com
