I haven't checked this message board in ages. I'm so happy to see eBay allowed it to continue, and as a small place where people can help each other. I'll be putting renewed emphasis on de-cluttering my life in the next few months, and I wish everyone else here success on the de-cluttering journey. So much of what we have could be used daily by someone who really needs it. So many "projects" we start never get done. I guess the secret to de-cluttering, for me, will be to simply be willing, finally, to part with it all.
It's been five years since I created this thread, and I probably have more "stuff" now than ever, but certain ly don't feel any richer for it. I guess now is as good of time as any to REALLY start earning my "doctorate" in de-cluttering.
Join me won't you? Together, we can own so much less, and feel so much better. All the best to each of you. And may God bless you.

Welcome back, Dr. DeClutter!
🙂
It is an on-going journey.

Yes, it is an on-going process. It's a regular part of housekeeping. I just went though my kids' fall clothes and found some more things to donate and sell on eBay. I thought the donation truck was coming tomorrow, but it came today, and I missed it. Oh well.
I worked on the garage some last week. The kids and I swept it out and I threw out some old repair supplies that were no good. Every little bit helps!
Good to see you back Dr. D.!

I havn't been on here for quite a long while.----Here is my update ---In August I had an auction of my Parents house and rest of the contents as well as some of my things too. I donated my Grandfathers show costumes to the Reperotory Theature Musium in Mt Pleasant Iowa after I had taken pictures of them.------I still have several boxs to go thru that I didn't want to sell at auction. Will probably be a winter thing to do on snowy days.------- My days now are filled with getting the outside ready for winter such as cleaning and winterizing the deck and cleaning up after the storm last summer that took down a small shed and I lost two big oak trees so my yard still needs my attention.

This weekend is going to be another, "what else can I get rid of?" . Hoping to get a few more bags of stuff out of the basement.
DH fell last week and separated his shoulder. His dominant arm and the one he had rotator surgery on back in 06. And of course it was at 3 am and I ended up calling the ambulance to get him to the hospital cause I couldnt hold his arm UP and drive at the same time. lol.
Do you think he does these things to get out of helping me declutter!?! lol.
wishing u well.
