We are definitely on the same page! I started to organize my art room.. wow so much excess stuff.. didn’t know how much orange paint I had until I organized by color 😵‍💫 after reading your article I got up this morning and started on a closet.. I normally do this type of cleaning in the spring time but there was a stirring inside me that really wants to get rid of anything I haven’t used in a while.. my husband on the other hand doesn’t understand why I want to get rid of most of the things I do.. hence waiting for a time when he’s not around dump quickly!! You can’t image how many times I have thrown things away and surprise surprise there on a shelf is a 49 year old duck I didn’t want now it has

a home again🫣🙄to your point cleaning purging organizing does give me a calm sense of accomplishment and removes the anxiety when I walk into a space closet and it’s beautiful and clean🤩💓🤩

On to the refrige tommorrow🥰

There used to be a rule in the house that if something gets 'put away' and I have not touched it for 6+ months, it's toast. Of course, there are exceptions, because I am not throwing away art, etc. But a dusty duck STILL has a target on it. If I found it at the thrift, I would buy it and leave it in your mailbox... just to see your face. 😎
