Time at the Library

    I have been reading every book my local library has in stock on the topic of "simple living."

I am trying not to buy so much "stuff"...where does it all come from?! I have been sorting and cleaning and tossing and giving away!!! But I just keep finding more and more. It was in closets and boxes and bins and ....Yes, I admit, I am a packrat and it is hard to stop

Post A Comment!

Jane, it is so frustrating how much stuff we accumulate even when we are trying not to. I guess it is just part of our society. I keep an area in my basement for storage for items that will either be garage saled (ugh!) or donated and there seems to be a large amount of items in it, but there still seems to be plenty in our house. I guess we'll have to keep on keeping on! I was going to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving, but I remembered that Thanksgiving is held at a different time in Canada. Blessings from the Big Sky Country...........Denise (prairiemom)

What's funny, too, is that when people try to get organized they always insist that what they need is more storage, more bins, more shelves, etc. If they would just PURGE and keep purging, they'd find that the storage they already have is more than enough. I have been decluttering for some time now and it's a long but rewarding process. You'll get there :)

Love,
Leah

LOL. I have the same problem. Have to keep at it as I love thrift stores and have a hard time not collecting stuff.
