Letting go

Something has evidently shifted. I spent the entire afternoon sorting through an impressive accumulation of stuff that was stored in our bathroom.

We’ve moved so much (seven or eight times in the past ten years!) that stuff was repeatedly tucked away without having the time (or the bandwidth) to make conscious decisions about what to get rid of and what to keep.

So today, a lot was discarded, quite a bit was set aside be given away, and I reorganized the space to keep those things we actually need.

It felt both freeing and exhausting. Especially in this heat!

I’ve got my eye on a different area of the apartment for tomorrow. Hope to keep the momentum going.
