The accidental horder
Have you ever felt like a horder? I'm getting close. I have enough books in the house to open my own small library. I've have a pile of receipts on my desk to record in my accounting system. And my husband says we have enough coffee cups for a roadside diner.
It's time to thin the madness. But that's hard for me. I love having my choice reading material. And what if I donate a book, just to find later, I love that author?
I'm reading the life-changing magic of tidying up and have a strong connection to the joy-sparking idea. I'm starting with my closet. I know what clothes I love and what ones I keep because either I spent too much money on it to get rid of, or I think I'll love it someday.
What about you? Do you hold on to things?

Oh, I'm with you. Books everywhere, receipts, coffee cups, clothes I ought to give up on. I'm getting better about the clothes and dishes, but not the books... NEVER the books. :)

Never the books! I'm pretty sure I said this a few times to my hubby.
