Purging of crap......we have spent all week doing this.....what a lovely freeing feeling. DH and I are finishing the basement and doing everything ourselves. We have been getting rid of some things I so regret ever bringing into the house in the first place. Mostly crap we bought when the kids were little, too many toys, plastic doll junk, lots of cheap wooden shelves and bins to store the crap, overabundance is clearly a problem for us. Than we have the stuff we are gifted, candy dishes, knicky knacks, old furniture, my aunt gave me a whole box of old cookbooks. Now I do so enjoy cookbooks, but I pulled out the good ones to save and need to give myself permission to get rid of the rest.

Work in progress......getting there though.

I will say though I will never give up my dishes.......
