Figuring out how everything got there seems like more of the battle than getting rid of the stuff. But I'm starting to think that addressing the cause matters more than digging out. <br /><br />I've enjoyed reading your blog so far and I'm looking forward to more posts. Love your blog name, btw.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03828440573673170480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1471390087114256737.post-68161492700574934772012-05-29T10:57:24.067-04:002012-05-29T10:57:24.067-04:00amen.

I can stilll covet stuff for weeks or months before I can finally say that I'm not going to benefit from having the item. <br /><br />You're absolutely right. Practice will make it better. But practice takes so much time, it's easy to get down on ourselves!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03828440573673170480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1471390087114256737.post-4268898613964253162012-05-28T00:24:39.189-04:002012-05-28T00:24:39.189-04:00OH hey stumbled upon your blog from another hoarde...OH hey stumbled upon your blog from another hoarder child blog! <br /><br />I feel like the path to a healthy level of 'stuff' depends on a couple things:<br />-know which are good things to spend money on (not buying something simply because it is a 'good deal', etc)<br />-knowing which things are okay to get rid of<br />-making the time periodically to go through and get rid of broken or unused items<br /><br />With practice I've gotten better at all of those things, but I still feel worried that I have the seeds of a hoarder in me and it will get out of control if I don't keep it in check.

Then I'd think "Oh great! Something to do!" or "I needed this!" only to lose it again somewhere in the house. <br /><br />The job was good while it lasted, but the day I left it, I noticed that most of the clutter and wasted money stopped too. I might follow your form and post a "found junk" list of my own.<br /><br />Congrats on coming out of the closet, alive, and with a bag for donations :)Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16083231941642125331noreply@blogger.com
