Purge

I realize that I'm a clutterbug. I know that it's my Achilles heel.

Therefore, my project of the summer is to purge. I want to get rid of stuff.

My first step was to begin listening to Peter Walsh's It's All Too Much. I wanted to hear the advice of a professional as I started.

The next step was to tackle the pile next to my bed. I had literally nine square feet of carpet covered in clutter. It took one trip to the transfer station (or the dump, if you live in the Midwest) and eight bags of donations to a local thrift shop.

My summer project has begun.
