At the same time I'm listening to music and decided, hey why not purge your music too?
There is stuff on there from high school that I don't listen to at all anymore! In fact whenever it would come on I would skip it. So I'm doing a double time purge! The guiding question to whether to keep the song or not? If I had kids right now would I let them listen to my iPod. The answer was no, so I'm working on it until the answer is yes!
Also I can actually see my floor now! I have a surprising amount of floor space that was just piled with stuff on it. But now I can even close my closet door., not to hide what's inside it either! It is organized and clean!
This may not seem like a big deal to you, but I moved in September and I still have boxes that aren't unpacked. I also unpacked one of those!
My room has always been a disaster zone growing up. My mind frame was that if a robber ever broke into my room, it was a self defense mechanism. One step in the door and they would trip and die... Okay it wasn't THAT bad. I'm not a hoarder, but definitely a lot nostalgic about things. I have a hard time parting with things, but I do part with them!
Already I've gotten rid of 3 garbage bags worth of stuff!
If you're like me and have a hard time cleaning because it's such a daunting task, then here is a question to pose to yourself- but also some wise advice that I recieved from my mother:
" How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time."
So I've been working on small sections, completely cleaning them and I've only got a couple small sections left to go! I've got a small room and about two rooms worth of stuff, so the purging is very necessary.
Anyways back to work I go! I want to make sure those ants leave for good!
Ciao!
