Not an AIBU but I am posting here for traffic.
Christmas is over and I feel shattered and down, and this isn't helped by the house being full of lots of new clutter and presents. Some wanted, some that need to go to the charity shop (far too many toys for the children, and quite a few things that I don't think will be played with).
I am going to attempt to clear the house but feel completely overwhelmed! We have just moved so the house was not very organised in the first place. Where do I start? I just want to start filling bin bags but what isstopping me is the fact it feels SO wasteful to give away so much. Especially when we are saving for work on the house (it's in need of a lot of work).
Should I be selling our unwanted things on eBay to contribute towards the renovation costs? I can't find the motivation to do this!
It seems such a drawn out process, photographing, loading pictures, writing descriptions, answering questions, packaging and taking to the post office. I have 3 young DC and probably only have an hour a day to myself which is taken up with the day to day housework.

AIBU?
Clutter, minimalism, eBay and my state of mind!
