Day 41: How To Create More Storage Without Changing A Thing

Have you ever had a closet so full you can't find a thing in it?

Less is definitely more!

Now that we are thinning out the crap, we are finding things we have been missing for years. Because we are tossing out the 'stuff', we are left with only the things we love and need... and we are not fighting through overfilled closets to get to them. 

The truth is, we have a long way to go however it is becoming increasingly obvious that we have so much more when we have less.

Minimalism isn't really my thing... I don't think (scratching head now...hmmmm). You never know, maybe (reflecting now...I won't be a minute).

One thing is for sure, as we clear out the clutter and slow the flow in, we are living a much fuller life.   

It is also obvious there is less for us to attend to at home. Less shuffling things around, less cleaning of 'stuff', less shuffling through piles, and less visual noise in the space.

I said to Jerry tonight that it will be interesting to see what our home is like at the end of this year. We are attempting to do this for 365 days. Perhaps we will end up with a few stools and a card table...LOL.
