Just Another Manic Monday

I'm in the process of moving....offices...at both of my places of employment! What are the odds that the moves happen within 10 days of each other? Funnily enough they were both scheduled for the middle of January and both were postponed and here we are moving this week and then again in 10 days! I'm feeling overwhelmed with packing up boxes after occupying my office for 7 years. I've found some interesting stuff, and some files that I've wondered why I've held onto them for so long. The positive part of moving is I can let go of all the stuff that I used to think I "needed." Do you do that too? Do you hold onto things just in case you need it next week, or next month, and before you know it, it has been taking up space for 3 years and you have never used it once?

I am not a hoarder! I much prefer to get rid of things and have fewer stuff to drag around, and yet, I have already packed 4 boxes and still have more to pack. I guess it is time to head to the dumpster...thankfully it is only 20 feet from my office door! I also have a big pile to send to the DI and to the recycle bin! It is feeling good to lighten the laod...wish it was as easy to move the scale in the lighter direction!

So, whether it is for the Annual Spring Cleaning or a big move, I highly recommend letting go of some of that stuff you have been hanging onto, that you don't need, and really don't want. Maybe you can recycle it, or find a friend who has need of it, or sell it on ebay, or donate it to the DI or Goodwill. Let it go...you'll feel better. I know I am feeling better, despite having had a Manic Monday!
