It was pointed out to me today that I "have a lot of stuff." I agree. And I think its becoming a problem. I really have no space for new stuff and I buy new stuff all the time. For example, I have two closets in my bedroom. One is for clothes I wear and the other is for clothes I don't wear and haven't worn in close to four years. I also have a storage locker full of stuff that I haven't even seen in at least two years.
It's time to pare down.
Last week I threw away three sizable garbage bags full of clutter, junk mail, and unusable consumer electronics. (Did I really need two broken wireless routers?) This weekend I'm going to go through my closets and get rid of all my unused clothes. They do me no good taking up space in my closets, and perhaps someone less fortunate than I will appreciate them.
Next I need to focus on cutting down on the accumulating. But I think I'll save that for a future weekend.
