Now that it's March, I am finally getting around to writing about my decluttering efforts last year. To say I smashed my goal is an understatement: I got rid of 6462 things.
Yowza!
And you know, it wasn't even hard. Yes, it took some dedication. But I steadily worked at getting stuff out of the house and I met my goal.
The other thing is, I don't miss any of it. Not a thing. Now partly this is because my house is complete chaos right now and I have the rest of my stuff crammed into much less space. But add 6462 things back and try to store them too? I don't think so!
Anyway, this whole "things" thing has worked really well for me. But... I'm not tracking what I get rid of this year. I will still get rid of things but I'm not formalizing it. Why? Well, number one is my heart condition. I have enough going on with that. And second, with renovations ongoing I have spent a lot of time moving things around the construction, and when they wrap up I'll have to unpack everything (ugh). I have enough going on with my stuff, never mind trying to track what I get rid of.
