beautiful or

joyful."-Regina Brett

Amen to that - only when you have kids, their stuff seems to ebb and flow like the tide through my house:-) Have a clutter-free day, menehune

I subscribe to this mantra, also. Two years ago we downsized and I was like a mad woman with a mission. I gave away much of our stuff and kept only what was useful or had sentimental value and brought me joy. It was very liberating.

Now that's a very interesting challenge!

Maria I admire you for your downsizing. It is liberating but just hard to get there. I am trying. I love the idea behind these words...quite freeing as yousay.

I look forward to the day I can downsize... for now I am trying to live by those words.
I always leave here with a smile in my heart.

I just did that this morning in my bathroom! Yes, even my bathroom is cluttered, because it has shelves...
