Several bags of "stuff" (ie, articles I can live without) have gone to the Salvation Army. I have contacted a person who is interested in an old compo doll to rehab, and when/if she chooses one (of the three), I will offer the other two to other people. So, I continue to keep on keeping on, which is the only way anyone gets anywhere! Would I prefer to have the Good Fairy come and do it overnight?!? Well, SURE, but this is REAL life as opposed to fantasy...................Monday, March 12, 2012

Just caught up with my blog-reading and read this and your previous posts about clutter. Very honest and open of you, which in itself must be a huge step. My turning point came in a dream when a character from a science fiction show told me to get rid of 50% of the stuff in my house. In the morning when I woke up I looked around and said "50%--that's just about right". Took several years to get to the 50% point (and it has never happened in the studio, but that's not clutter, it's resources). I'm still a very messy person but now I keep my living room clean enough so that people can come in at any time and I'm not embarrassed. Hang in there, it WILL be worth it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, DragonPoodle. I keep on working on it, but have been so busy lately that I don't have as much time to devote to it that I'd like. Spring/summer is a distracting time, with not just "inside" stuff to do, but outside things, too. But the Starving Artists' Yard Sale is coming up and I'm hoping to get rid of a lot of excess stuff then. Like you, I don't like giving up my resources, which is mostly what I have. But some is not, and that is what has to go.
