Spring Cleaning

With the novel done (well, almost, almost), and with the snow finally melted, and with the baby not puking anymore, it is the time for spring cleaning. I'm inspired to declutter. I toss things out ruthlessly, but things do accumulate or rather shift around the house--this is the house of kids, after all. But this spring I'm more committed than ever, and I'm fighting moments of frustration and despair with the help of this blog.

  2. i'm decluttering our place too! it's so hard to do with all that i've collected over the last little while. it's neat that we both posted about spring cleaning today. i posted and then saw this on your blog and thought i just *had* to comment, lol.

    I am inspired by this, "Unless you're really starting with a blank slate, for everything new you bring in, take out something old. Don't hang onto things for forever just because they might come in handy." (via apartment therapy)
