What feels even better is to pass them along and bless others who do need and/or want them. A simpler, more Christlike lifestyle is our aim, and it is wonderful to see ourselves getting a bit closer to that goal. Thanks for the great post...I found it on Pinterest! :)Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01891257905649460436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8990217242364259191.post-61714350311085129702015-08-02T10:26:47.949-04:002015-08-02T10:26:47.949-04:00I love this!

Clothes in particular seem to accumulate through the years. And now that we've changed our lifestyle, some of them just don't apply. So I plan to do a full wardrobe review - do they fit, do they flatter, are they wonderful - with plans to recycle or donate anything that doesn't come with a great big yes. Amazing how hard it actually is to let stuff go though.

Love this list to simplify your life. After inheriting quite a lot from my parents very crowded home since my mother passed away, I've struggled to fit it all in my home and need some guidance to sort out my own limited space. I think this list may just be part of the answer ;) Wendy xSeptember Violetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10931133319044031928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8990217242364259191.post-91887464215680210872014-01-10T23:59:10.409-05:002014-01-10T23:59:10.409-05:00Much of this is how I try to live my life, but in ...Much of this is how I try to live my life, but in my craft area is anything but simple.

Been cleaning out the storage room to redo it as my studio. Can't imagine why I was hanging on to some of that stuff.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16798403531760348267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8990217242364259191.post-7854425877087388712014-01-09T16:01:54.779-05:002014-01-09T16:01:54.779-05:00Great list and a few things I need to work on myse...Great list and a few things I need to work on myself!!

I'm working on that, mostly able to do that now, say no, when not able or don't want to do something, but for years and years I just couldn't do it.

Or two. :)Staci@LifeAtCobbleHillFarmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12970355437338210130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8990217242364259191.post-27929050144506161852014-01-08T15:25:34.021-05:002014-01-08T15:25:34.021-05:00I love this!

David is much more of a minimalist than I am, so he's constantly challenging me to get rid of things. I'm sentimental so it's hard, but I'm working on not being such a pack rat!

In fact, I'm working on a series about organizing for the new year starting tomorrow, and many of these ideas are incorporated.<br />One thing I did last year was stop watching tv as much. There are a handful of things I view, and now I have more time to read, write, garden, etc. One of the best things I ever did.<br /><br />Rock on, Staci!daisy ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06129079277073067462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8990217242364259191.post-17578675423930361492014-01-08T13:20:42.847-05:002014-01-08T13:20:42.847-05:00Hmmm... 13 out of 25.
