I admire people who can do this, though. <BR/><BR/>Hope you had a good Monday!Babaloohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11453252897926773386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076712181904223864.post-89404957964460830692009-02-09T23:03:00.000+01:002009-02-09T23:03:00.000+01:00I was purging again out of the locker a few weeks ...I was purging again out of the locker a few weeks ago, Irene and was amazed I had five bags for Goodwill, this was the stuff I couldn't part with less than 2 years ago. Time and distance really helps. good for you, clearing out, the simpler our life the more contented we are. You are growing in leaps and bounds, my dear.<BR/>There is an award for you over at my place.<BR/>XO<BR/>WWWWisewebwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15281689872840844191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076712181904223864.post-49139801404022829782009-02-09T15:27:00.000+01:002009-02-09T15:27:00.000+01:00This is my second attempt to comment on your blog....This is my second attempt to comment on your blog. I got lots of interruptions this morning!<BR/><BR/>I am a bit of a hoarder but am taking things in hand & trying to recycle the things I don't need. I wouldn't throw anything into the rubbish bin that could be recycled!<BR/>Things that I do get rid of are often things I regret later, as a use often crops up or someone needs what I have thrown out.<BR/>However it is depressing to live in a clutter & I am going to turn over a new leaf and start to get rid of stuff right away!

But one man's rubbish is another man's 'might come in useful'. <BR/>Not helped by the fact that people regularly leave things here when they stay with us. Then when they come back they don't recognise their socks/ jacket/pyjamas/books - as we often have a lot of people here we can't be sure whose things they are. But you can be sure that if you throw anything away, you will get a phonecall or a message saying 'Oops, I remember that - could you send it? It isn't mine, I borrowed it... or some such!'lebanesahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07988892248196307424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076712181904223864.post-36323825123728301012009-02-09T09:47:00.000+01:002009-02-09T09:47:00.000+01:00I think it is very therapeutic and cleansing to cl...I think it is very therapeutic and cleansing to clean out a house and leave just the things you really want or need.<BR/><BR/>My friend Sally has a friend called Dale who lived in a very minimalist house with just a few ornaments and flower arrangements. She even had a bed which was on the floor, except it wasn't just a mattress, a proper bed. Very oriental and Zen Buddhist-like, and made for a very calm peaceful atmosphere. She had being going through major upheavals in her life so her house was a kind of oasis.Bevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04676624646066417262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076712181904223864.post-2952403026669505832009-02-09T07:54:00.000+01:002009-02-09T07:54:00.000+01:00I hope you made something interesting at creative ...I hope you made something interesting at creative therapy. I think one of the assets of travel is not being burdened down with stuff. It's amazing what we can live without for a few weeks. The more we travel, the less we take with us. If it doesn't fit in carry-on, it doesn't go.Breakfast in Californiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03136977037746746293noreply@blogger.com
