... I get ruthless with my stuff and throw loads away?
I live in a very small house which has got smaller since my son was born. Add to that the fact that left a much bigger house to move here and have already de-cluttered once, so the stuff I have is the stuff I couldn't bear to part with plus I married a man who also has a load of clutter.
My clutter consists of many books, clothes, shoes, things people have given me. His clutter is clothes and a load of computer and geeky stuff. I am 41 and I still have stuff I had when I was a teenager.
One of the things in life that worries me the most is what people think of my house when they come round, to the point that I don't like inviting people round. Since I had my son there has been a need for more people to visit like health visitors, DH's family and I am really aware that I just can't have my ante-natal group round with their babies.
Has anyone ever gone from being a hoarder to living a more minimalist lifestyle? How did you do it, were you just ruthlessand throw everything out and did it make you happier?
AIBU?
to ask you all if you think I will be happier if...
