Welcome to the second 1/2 of 2014. This year has flown by, more so than other years. I am staying committed to working towards living with less. Some of the rules that I now live by which are helping me to do this are:
1) One in, one out NO EXCEPTIONS
2) Only buy what you absolutely love and know you'll use
3) Don't hang on to stuff thinking "maybe someday"
It's definitely true what you hear. The more you do it, the better you get at it. As I keep focusing on purging I find that it gets easier every time. When I circle back on a room or drawer that I had previously purged I find that I can purge more then second time even though I thought I purged all I could first time. So I am keeping on, keeping on. Here's my update for the first 6 months of this year.
If you are taking on your own purging I commend you and encouraging you to keep going! It's rewarding.
