Every now and then I go overseas for work and live out of a carry-on bag for eight weeks or more. It's amazing how much 'lighter' your mind feels when you're only living with the essentials. I try to clean out our house every year too - usually when my partner's not home. Men are worse than women at hoarding, I think! Love the 72 year old neighbor's Not-Dead-Yet Estate Sell on Home Before Dark's comment. What a great idea. <br />Janelle McCulloch | A Library of DesignJanelle McCullochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16006727386237836016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3757093408303875257.post-48369338135027942892011-12-08T09:27:17.604-05:002011-12-08T09:27:17.604-05:00Patricia,

I gave to people I thought would like to add their story to mine. I gave to charities. I joined my 72 year old neighbor's "not dead yet estate sell." Some things were hard to let go of, but It had to be done. Still not through the remodel war, but look forward to the space letting go has created in my life.home before darkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13272062955786414729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3757093408303875257.post-16164141111700370932011-12-05T12:50:59.750-05:002011-12-05T12:50:59.750-05:00brilliant idea.
