I want...no scratch that...I NEED to declutter this house!
Please tell me that there are others out there that have emotional attachments to items.
Please tell me that is not just me!
I don't know what it is but I have a hard time getting rid of things.
Take this lamp for instance. It was in Allison's first "girly" room after her nursery. It's been sitting up in my closet for I don't know how long. It's not like we are ever going to use it again but I just listed it on Craigslist and now I have this ache in my heart. WHY??? It's crazy!
Maybe I'm afraid that if I let it go, I'll forget her toddler years...that I need to keep it to trigger my memory to go back to how excited she was when made her a Disney Princess room. How, at about 3 years of age, she thanked us for painting her room pink. How a pink Disney Princess room made her the happiest little princess in the world.
Oh I hate that my daughter is not a baby anymore!
Whew! I feel better getting it out and now I have the memory documented here that I don't need that lamp decluttering my closet anymore!
Boy, this is much cheaper than therapy!
Have Fun!
Pin It
It amazes me how quickly things accumulate.
Is it just me?
