Massive decluttering of house , what's wrong with me?

[Poodlelove]

Quick back story , ten years ago we had to clear a close relatives home , after they suddenly passed away.It took months .

I then began decluttering my own home so that our children didn't have this burden.They are all adults and have their own families.

Over the last few weeks I have been sorting out again , this time getting rid of big furniture that we are not using.
Getting rid of things that ten years ago I wouldn't part with .

I have got this feeling that I must do this and every time something has been collected via market place I feel so much better.

Today my husband said he was a little worried that he would come home and the sofa would be gone.

I am not yet 60 , I had a health scare in the January, but got the all clear , whilst recovering I couldn't do any housework , my husband did a good job but I got very frustrated that I couldn't do anything .

Has anyone else my age been through this ?

Thanks for reading.

I think I went too far when I declutterred my wardrobe, I reduced 4 rails of tops down to 2 smaller ones. I entered up getting rid of anything that was too small. Since then though I have lost almost 3 stone and I’m going around in baggy things as I don’t want to buy any more as I still need to lose another 4 stone or so.

I wish I had kept a few nicer things in smaller sizes but I needed to be ruthless as my arthritis means I can no longer reach the upper rails! I’m going to get my sewing machine out to put in some darts in a few things but will have to buy a few bits by Spring. Luckily in have my first knee replacement surgery in four weeks then hopefully having the second one done in March so it will be around mid April before I can drive again and be able to go out to socialise - living alone I drive everywhere.

i currently have an old fan, a standard lamp ( broken) and an old coffee table from the study in my hall waiting some someone ( hello daughter!) to take them to the tip for me. If I dump then in the hall I won’t forget.
