uncluttering one day and one thing at a time

Isn't it a great feeling to get rid of the bits that aren't quite right! I'm guessing that a few years into the future, I'll have another pass through, and get rid of more of the tatty ones, as you did with your grandmother's pieces, because I'll be a few years more relaxed about letting go of things from my childhood -- that has been the pattern so far, that I'll notice that something isn't good, and then at some point later I'll be able to make that choice. And although I'm in my 40s, and my kids are still teens, I'm starting to be quite paranoid about not having time to get everything sorted, and leaving them with crap that needs doing that I should have had time to sort out first!
