Alleviating load by de-cluttering is satisfying
I spent all of yesterday de-cluttering. It's amazing how much one collects over time.
So far I have 2 bags for re-cycling, 2 bags of junk, 2 bags of clothes for the Salvation Army. And these are extremely large bags. Still plenty more to go.
white shopping bag gives a comparison of size
All in all an abosultely A-ok outcome.
And since garbage bags are not much fun, here is a picture of the Auckland Sky Tower hearlding the arrival of 2018.
Have an awesome week.

My turn soon. I have to be in the right frame of mind or I just wallow in memories. :) :)
ReplyDeleteYes true Jo, need to be in the load shedding frame of mind.
DeleteI dunno. If I de-clutter, I might cease to exist!
ReplyDeleteWe can't have that Ron :)
DeleteWow, I am falling behind. I'd better start filling bags so I don't lose. (If I think of decluttering as a contest, I might actually do it, lol). (Oh, and as a distraction so I can catch up... my blog: https://alicesgrandadventures.blogspot.com)
ReplyDeleteThanks Alice. Now that would really get a lot of us going.
DeleteOld times were simple and easy... Thanks to advancement and an increase in consumption,we cling onto so many things and the best way is to de-clutter!
ReplyDeleteVery true Meenakshi - too many things are available too easily.
DeleteOh I have so much of decluttering to do. The last time I did it well was in 2015 & I got rid of so many things. Boy I’m scared to even open the Pandora’s box:(
ReplyDeleteIt's true, decluttering does open up a Pandora's box.
Deleteyour six words are so true.. i put away clothes that i have not been using for years now (gently used) and finally decided that keeping them longer will not make me actually use them; so now they are all bagged too waiting for their trip to the donation center..
ReplyDeleteloved that pic of the Auckland sky tower
thank you for visiting my blog from both 6ws and abc wednesday
De-cluttering exercise is therapeutic in many ways! The kind of satisfaction one derives once this exercise is over is unmatched.
ReplyDeleteYou have captured the essence so well in just 6 words! Decluttering of thoughts in action, I can say.
I salute your decluttering!
ReplyDeleteI've been doing some serious decluttering, too. It's sort of a pain in the neck, but the end result is SO satisfying!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up at https://image-in-ing.blogspot.com/2018/01/ill-never-be-cotton-farmer.html
Your post and the fact that we just had Bhogi celebrations here in Tamil Nadu yesterday has now motivated me to do some serious decluttering - both of my inner and outer home :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats for your effort & intention.
ReplyDeleteDecluttering is in my list for long.
Have been doing in phases. Miles to go.
That's the second post I've read about decluttering. Time to get going with it. The fireworks look magnificent.
ReplyDeleteI need to do some decluttering too. Too many stuffs that haven't been used in years. Glad you got things cleared 😊
ReplyDeleteI have done some cleaning out and decluttering too, must be the new year thing :) Yesterday we went to the mall and bought some plastic drawer and cupboard organizers from a couple of newly opened shops.
