I know most people do their 'spring cleaning' in the spring, but I am just in the mood to declutter...I have more 'stuff' than any one person needs...now let me add... this is not stuff I purchased, but when I moved here, to my dads house and they moved to Costa Rica, they did not take everything they owned, the gave it to me...so that meant not only did I have my own things, but I also 'inherited' some of their things...they have really nice things and some I have found extremely useful but some I haven't...I have some of my own things I have not unpacked in the year I have lived here...soooooo this tells me if I can have 'stuff' for a year and never look at it, I must not need it....right?...So over the next few days I am unpacking my boxes, going through cabinets, closets and anywhere else I can find and purge this stuff...Its so freeing...I have in the past tried to do this, but I kept hanging on to stuff...NOT THIS TIME! It all must go...let me give you an example...I had my own coffee pot(bunn brand) when I moved here....They also had one and left it....sooooo that gave me 2...who really needs 2 bunn coffee makers? No one! I had a desk when I moved here, they left me 2, we only have 1 desktop computer so who needs 3 desks??? Again, No one! Well, unless you have 3 people who need seperate desk, but in my case we don't...that is just the very tip of the ice berg here...there is so much stuff...its almost overwhelming...So that is why I am decluttering this week and have a massive garage sale...

I also have some homeschool curriculum for sale I will be listing here in a few days...keep watch if you are looking for something, I may have it!

Yea I have been some similiar things since I am still trying to unload from the move I did about almost 3 weeks ago.... Slow and steady seems to be the pace here, even though my "temperment" is like that of a race horse, maybe the Lord has something else in mind for me since I stepped on a nail the other day and it pierced the padding of my left foot, which has now got me going slow and steady.lol. Anyhow happy cleaning too you

You sound like you have a lot of work ahead of you. Just price everything cheap at your yard sale so it will be gone and out of your hair. This can help with the "extras" of your move. God Bless. I
