Here we are, a week late (again). And this week's aren't very exciting... we've both been working outside of and in the home a lot. It's been amazing. How does organizing closets really feel SO cleansing? Michael and I have both been finding that the less stuff we have, the more freedom we feel. I think it's a combination of a lot of things but I love not having a basement full of things that I consider to be valuable but am not using. Having extra stuff requires time for upkeep, organizing, and cleaning, and I think each thing also holds a little piece of my heart that just loves having stuff. But that's all that it is - stuff! It makes moving that much more of a pain and finding anything even a bigger pain. We do treasure things that hold special memories for each of us, but we're getting to the place of letting go of our entire high school wardrobes (I know, it's embarrassing...), trinkets, and many "just in case" items.
Michael won't be driving the truck quite as much this summer but he did want to show off the beginnings of the new paint job! |
So happy spring cleaning and organizing to all of you, if that's your thing.
Much love,
-K&M
