She anthropomorphises (sp) clothing and things so that you think about who made it and who sold it to you and that it has another life. I suppose the end result is that you really think about buying more stuff too.About Last Weekendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04716571630418078937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5901268365510893153.post-53964221929419761372015-05-24T17:24:43.160-07:002015-05-24T17:24:43.160-07:00Knowing thyself quickest way to happinessKnowing thyself quickest way to happinessAbout Last Weekendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04716571630418078937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5901268365510893153.post-34614670584966737042015-05-24T17:23:46.199-07:002015-05-24T17:23:46.199-07:00I like it theoretically, but too lazy to carry abo...I like it theoretically, but too lazy to carry about the impulseAbout Last Weekendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04716571630418078937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5901268365510893153.post-22025878256293590702015-05-24T17:23:23.340-07:002015-05-24T17:23:23.340-07:00Trish - ahead of the curve baby!Trish - ahead of the curve baby!About Last Weekendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04716571630418078937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5901268365510893153.post-31198413156191652102015-05-24T17:23:01.959-07:002015-05-24T17:23:01.959-07:00Always the way, like that with belts too.Always the way, like that with belts too.About Last Weekendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04716571630418078937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5901268365510893153.post-62932049731057714322015-05-24T14:55:55.621-07:002015-05-24T14:55:55.621-07:00I loved this book!

I was able to do a massive clear-out but never sure why or how, though it did feel good and I don't miss anything.<br />I kept clothes that spark joy even if I never wear them, they were only a few items so I say keep the shirt. I kept many many things my children have made in a big trunk downstairs, and a smaller trunk with their favourite toys. They spark joy for sure. I think her methods needed that kind of adapting for a family home. You must keep all of Cy's art, he's a genius and when he's President it will all be very valuable.<br />The paper thing was helpful to me, why does all that paper need keeping besides the tax returns, and gov't documents? It doesn't, that chucking was very freeing.<br />Wow you really do have a HubStar, he's so good at de-cluttering, economics books aside. ;)DaniBPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02633155240779845497noreply@blogger.com
