It comes and goes. But, it's been coming more and more often.
What is that quote? "Do not keep anything in your home that you do not believe to be functional or beautiful." Who said it? An architect perhaps?
Anyway. He was right. And I have too much clutter in my life. My car is full of bags that need to be donated. My closet is overflowing and I can't find or use anything. I just store it for someday in the future when I have more space.
In order to be able to start working on projects.. I need to make some room. Mentally and literally.
Related to this:
a. Don't buy cheap clothes or poorly made accessories. No more fake rings. sigh. They don't last, and I throw them away (or keep them tucked in a drawer forever) after I wear them twice.
b. Don't buy things for future projects. Focus only on the projects at hand. I just don't have the space right now.
However. I did just buy this necklace for 4 dollars at Forever21. I should find a suitable replacement. It will probably be green in a few days...
Also. This jacket? Best purchase of 2010. More than I normally spend, but I wear it constantly. This is my point, people. This is my point.
Also, I like fresh starts. And I like feeling accomplished and prepared.
And.. getting rid of clothes and clutter feels like a great place to start.
So tonight, I'm cleanin' out my closet...
(sorry, I couldn't resist.)
p.s. I learned a little something this morning. life lessons everywhere you look.
