It is that time once again. My husband and I were in the basement this weekend looking at all of the stuff that we have accumulated. How do two people accumulate so much crap? Then you throw a child into the mix and you may as well multiply by two.
I am afraid that I have passed my love for clothing onto my daughter. I have two totes and about three bags of clothes just for her. Luckily, she is only one and her clothes are little. I am thinking of a mom to mom sale, but I would like to attend one first to see how they operate.
But, I digress. Back to the big picture. What to do with all of our extra stuff. I guess we can have a garage sale or two or three or four this summer! Then donate some stuff.
I think that the hardest thing for me is separation anxiety. I kept this because it was sentimental. I kept that because someone gave it to me. Oh, and I can't get rid of that because I bought that when I was 16. I wish that I was like so many other people and did not grow attached to my stuff. Somehow, it seems easier to sell it in a garage sale because then I know it is going to a happy home!!
All I know is that we need more room and some stuff needs to go. Perhaps, I will just close my eyes and start pitching. This could be theraputic!!
