I purged 2 sleeveless running shirts because I prefer my assortment of lululemon running t-shirts, 2 long-sleeve running shirts that I've had for probably close to 10 years, and a vintage T that started its life at Goodwill (circle of life, people). So I'm left with 2 long-sleeve t-shirts, 1 long-sleeve running t-shirt (because I mean really...how many do you need in Texas?), about 5 t-shirts, 1 running tank, 2 yoga tanks, and 3 running t-shirts in my shirt bin.
Also, a few reflections as I only have 2 weeks to go:
- This is WAY TOO EASY. Each day, it literally takes me 5-10 minutes to come up with 5 things that we can give away. Once I got over it, I am not nearly as attached to stuff as I thought I was...which is a relief...though I've also realized the things I am attached to (and just avoiding because there are plenty of other things to get rid of).
- We have so much stuff - as I'll post tomorrow, I have almost 20 pairs of running socks. Who needs 20 pairs of running socks?! It makes me think about all the time and money we've wasted on acquiring these things.
- We need much less than we think we do.
- I have a lot of thoughts and feelings about how all this stuff plays into religion, politics, consumerism, etc...but it's not organized enough in my head to verbalize.
