I've made little progress since I started this project a couple years ago. What can I say-life got in the way. Energy level tanked and the process slowed down to a halt for awhile.
I did make money from my first effort to start the declutter project but it was easy money. Sorting through old jewelry and turning it into cash with high gold prices was enough to keep me happy . But that was a two sided sword because with money jingling in my pocket that didn't require much work I found I could ignore the mess upstairs and in the attics pretty easily.
Perhaps watching the TV Hoarders show renewed my interest and made me think harder about the declutter project in the past few weeks-or perhaps it was the need to see just how much can be made from the clutter and the 'stuff'' accumulated over 40 years in the same house. So I am on a roll again and this time I'm not quitting until it is sorted, saved, sold or sent to the kids (if they want something).
I am going to see if I can finance our Christmas this year with my clutter. Think I can? I don't know but it's worth a try. Come along for the journey and let's see how it happens.
Just for a little more motivation I am on the Christmas Holiday Home tour December 11--so it has to be done, decorated and delightful by then.
Now I'm ready for a tall glass of tea.
