I think about decluttering a lot.

Most recently, I was invited out to a dressy occasion and did not go, but it got me thinking about what I would wear if I did. I mean, I’m living in a very rural area where the likelihood of going somewhere dressy is extremely rare. Also, I am asocial. There still might be wedding(s) and/or funeral(s) though?

Anyway, I have clothing from eight years ago when I was social and living in a city 166% larger than the village where I currently reside. I was also dating at that time (!) I am never wearing those clothes again. I can get rid of them. They’ve been bagged up since, so they would need a good wash if they’re to be donated.

And then some of the clothing is just straight up garbage, which is a little tricky, because I’m living with a hoarder family member who looks through the trash for items to save. I’ve gotten around this by taking some of my garbage (empty yogurt tubs, for instance) to work to throw away.

In conclusion, this is just a thread about decluttering.

I’ve only cleaned out three drawers, so okay.

Oh that's good....

I find it difficult to declutter and usually need a friend over for to support my morale.

I donated a huge box of vhs movies last weekend—maybe around 100 tapes. I brought home a box from work to start in on sorting through my old clothes. First, I will gather enough clothes to fill the box, then I’ll decide what is straight trash and what just needs to be washed…
