I keep coming back to our theme because our goal is to simplify our lives by eliminating unneeded "stuff" or clutter in our homes. We have discovered that people are more important than things, and a clutter free home helps us be more willing to be hospitable to guests. After almost 6 months of decluttering at least one thing per day, I have made progress. Many of our extended family are coming in for my daughter's graduation, and I feel much less stressed about having guests because I have less clutter and the house stays neater on its own. It is truly freeing!
The beauty of "one thing per day" decluttering is that everyone can easily do it and it isn't overwhelming. We're trying to build good habits of not bringing in more "stuff" as readily and getting rid of what we don't need (and often don't even want.)
Another piece of clothing went in the box for Goodwill today.
