Morning @soul, @CheerBear, @Maggie, @Sahara, @Former-Member, @utopia Nice to see you. Getting in 'the right headspace has so much to do with success. Sure need to give it my best shot. // I'm not feeling well this morning (aching, ringing in ears, sciatica, tired fhe om lacknof sleep, feel heavy, think body's gone into shock lol) - but i'm out of bed having a coffee. // Like the P.A.C.E. acronym Darcy 👍 Still at 'P' stage here.
One thing from a Japanese declutter guru is "DOES IT BRING ME JOY?" Amazing how many things weigh heavily. I don't want to hang onto bad memories...
@Faith-and-Hope, like what you said:
"WHEN WE RELINQUISH SOMETHING, IT CREATES SPACE IN OUR LIFE TO RECEIVE SOMETHING NEW" 💜🌷🌿
This yesterdays x4 Charity Bags walking out the front door lol
This next pic is my 'PACKING ROOM' for things I don't want. Took me hours to clear the bottom of that bed. Those four bags came from the mountain in that space 😞 the plan is to stack finished Garage Sale boxes on that bed once its cleared off. There's gonna be avlot and want them off the floor
There's already things sorted for separation to go in this room to go (garage sale or Vinnies truck). in other rooms to be stored here. Thinking maybe it won't all fit. Be calling vinnies truck sooner than later I suspect, but would like to try sell it.

Just heardvon ABC radio that there's over 600 suicides a year in Australia. That's like two a day. Wow, worse than the road toll. 😮 Almost normal 😒 not!
I gotta go do something. Maybe dress, eat, pills 😥😦 . Boohoo, it hurts to move 😫, I'm not even 60 yet, its not fair.
Back soon 💜💕🌷🌿🌻

Even getting a few things sorted will be a good effort today @Former-Member. It might help to have some mini goals - this cupboard or this corner of the room.
We'll be here cheering you on from the sidelines should you need some encouragement.
Hope all the ridding of stuff has been cathartic for you.

@Former-Member just me being pedantic - well done you for progress so far.
I am getting inspired to clean my spare room - not much room to move there, Am thinking even if I can move a couple of things a day, in a month things should be heaps better. I have started on magazines - have a few bags ready to go to the community health centre where they are in need.
One thing I have already done was I got some of these containers for my bathroom cabinet - one has spare shampoo, conditioner, soap in it, one for dental supplies (cups, toothbrushes, denture tabs, toothpaste) one for shaving gear, one for secret women's business, one for colognes and one for makeup cleaners, cotton tips and the like. Makes it so much easier to clean the cupboard too, take out the baskets, wipe down shelf and put back containers.
