de Clutter Free Club

[tsophra]

aight me on a mission to get rid a Clutter..reading a really great book named "Clear Your Clutter with Feng Shui" Karen Kingston..lots of tings in dis book resonated with me..

what's clutter?

things you do not use or love
things that are untidy or disorganised
too many things in too small a space
anyting unfinished..



she seh de areas of yu home dat are cluttered affect de parts of yu life dat are connect to dose areas...

nuff a wha she say mek sense..especially in terms of why we hold on to stuff and how to leggo

so who want's to be clutter free? [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/bannana_purple.gif[/img]

I am in perpetual clutter free mode. . . . but no matter what I do - I am still Clutter Queen !

One tip I learned is that if you really love something BUT it needs to go - TAKE A PHOTO OF IT. That way you will “have it” but it will be in a smaller state. [img]/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif[/img]

Yes, I have a stack of audio cassettes! But I am keeping mine because that is the type of player I have in my car. When I change up cars - no more audio cassettes.
