That sounds like the best thing for a day like this!
I ended up having an OK to quite good day.
I tidied and sorted for another few hours in the afternoon. I still have quite a lot more to do. It's become like peeling back the layers of an onion, and I'm enjoying peeling them back, one layer at a time. It's not as overwhelming or as stressful as when I started (must be about six months ago now), although I still get stressed out occasionally, and I can feel myself starting to get a bit anxious - pounding heart, slightly short of breath...that kind of thing.
I started because I needed to empty my flat of H's belongings. That was awful, and very, very stressful. Then after I had done all of that, I moved onto my clothes and shoes, because I had (still have) far too many. No need for multiple black t-shirts, unless black is all you wear of course
I still have far too many clothes, shoes and bags, but it's becoming more manageable now. I'm going to focus more on buying one better quality item that I really want, at the point that I need it, rather than buying multiple much cheaper versions, as and when.
I'm also focusing on not buying any more skincare products. I have far too many of those. I'm just going to use up the ones I already have.
I guess all of this is very much a 180 for me.
Anyway, the fairy lights I found as I was tidying, are now draped around the living room window and switched on. They look lovely.
Am thinking things over SH_, and will answer your post too. I'm not ignoring you
