decluttering... But don't do it just for your husband, do it for yourself.
That has been the problem up until now. I am ready to start taking care of myself!
My problem is boxes of stuff, especially paper---old magazines (with tips on decluttering ), old letters, outdated coupons, recipes, etc.....Problem is I have good things mixed in with bad things (I would clear off a table by piling things into a box when company was coming over (or H was due home). For example, yesterday I found our missing marriage certificate in with some old insurance papers. Maybe tomorrow I'll find my D16's birth certificate. It's time consuming going piece by piece. Not much to give away at this point, but have lots to throw away! I am trying to follow Flylady's advice and work for a period of time and then take a break. One issue in the past has been that it seems like an overwhelming task. I will take it in baby steps! Guess I should start at 3:30am when I wake up worrying about the direction my life is taking me.
THANK YOU EVERYONE! I appreciate hearing from you. Matilda
