That is my thinking right now...
When am I ever happy with...how a room is arranged...the right number of pillows on the bed...the pursuit of those "perfect" pair of pants....the color on the wall...my weight  ... the house is clean enough...do I have enough soap...dreaming instead of living (not that dreaming is bad...but time slips by while you dream and then you missed the now) you get the idea...
I am stopping the madness right now..well..ok..tomorrow...I have given myself 24 hours to get rid of what I truly do not need and then be done with it and really really really really start living...
At some point, I had to reach THIS enough point...I am so glad I did!!!

I'm right with Bertha...I have read Sarah Ban Breathnach's book Simple Abundance 2 times..It takes a year to read as it is a daybook.....she's very inspiring!

So easy to say, so hard to do. Keep at it if that is what you really want. I do keep trying, so I know how hard it is to do. Good luck to all.
Hope all your days are Sunnydays.

Heather,
You are doing what I've been thinking of all winter. My plan is to start by going room by room and clearing out. It is going to the garage and then a Garage sale is in order. It's getting warm enough and I now have some time, so starting next week I think I'll do a room a day.
Who knows maybe I'll find buried treasure. You have inspired me to start.
Thanks
TEDDIE

I walked in after picking up Charlie and I was met with a very cleaned off kitchen counter and I moved the rocking chair to the bedroom. AHHH SPACE!!! It was so nice and peaceful!!! I was very ruthless today about getting rid of things(Up until the phone call the ticked me off, then I lost my energy) but anywho, I did it and I feel great!!!

i have just started over for the second time in two years and can testify that our stuff is just...well...stuff. as an artist, i still have a bit of clutter but even my art supplies have been greatly cut down. it always suprises me how much we think we need.
What we write today slipped into our souls some other day when we were alone and doing nothing.
