Do you know how large of a crate you have to get for a great dane? And do you know how hard it is to find a place in your house to put that kind of crate?
I say that, because I once again feel like we have too much stuff. So I have 3 declutter goals for January:
- Sell unwanted Ikea cabinets (done! $80 on Craigslist...seriously people - jump on the Craigslist train!)
- Sell a couch (can't decide which one...but we have at least 1 too many...)
- Empty 12 things out of my office room (which is where the crate now lives) until it is "acceptable"
#3 is the hardest. That room is where I stash all the stuff I don't want to get rid of but don't really have a use for. So I told myself yesterday if I can't come up with an immediate purpose/place for it (ex: hang on wall, put in jar with other pens...), it has to go. I told myself that our house is not a museum and has to have space for the things we have yet to do.
