Today I emptied 9 boxes, including all my books and CD's, and created 1 box of give-aways in the process.
1 box is not a lot but I've purged boxes of books and CD's over the past several months, so I'm happy that I was able to cull 1 more box today. I'm also working my way through another stack of questionable CD's with a critical ear. It's kind of fun to hear an annoying song, press eject, and toss the CD into a cardboard box!
De-cluttering comes in layers, as I realize how little I miss the things I've purged, how much I enjoy the space I've created, and as my needs change.
Today I'm parting with all my infertility books and What to Expect When You're Expecting -- I don't expect to need it, and if I unexpectedly do get pregnant again, I know what to expect. There's always another copy in the second-hand shop anyway.
