Intro...

Hello there! I've just recently been through a break-up (after nearly 5 years!) and I decided to get a blog as a place to vent, and post other random things. While searching for communities, I stumbled upon this one. Cleaning has never been my thing, but I think getting rid of one or a few items at a time is completely doable. My room is beginning to resemble my personal life, a mess! So I think this community will provide the support and motivation that I need to get things back on track.

I have so much stuff crammed into my room, and I'm sure I don't even need most of it. I've just been in the mindset of "What if I need this later?!" Well, after becoming recently single, and the end of the school year quickly approaching, I have plenty of things that I can either throw out or donate. Textbooks can be sold back or recycled, old clothes can be thrown out or donated, but I don't know what to do with this giant "Kiss Me" frog from my ex...

Well, here's to a year of uncluttering my living space as well as my life!

Welcome!

Sorry to hear about your break up.

All the best with the uncluttering. I'm finding it pretty therapeutic.

A note on the frog: if you do want to get rid of it I imagine there's probably somewhere which would gladly take it as a donation. Charity shop, thrift shop, goodwill. Something like that. Just a suggestion. I got rid of a stack of cuddly toys that way.

Thank you! I've just started the uncluttering, and it feels good to get some of this stuff out of the way.

Oh, thanks for the tip. When we get a full box of donations, I'll see if the church will accept it. That frog really has to go; not only does it make me sad, but takes up the whole top of my bookshelf!
