I'm too old and I work too hard all day to work some more when I get home. I used to feel about weight loss the way you describe cleaning and organizing: trying to control something. So I guess I'm totally out of control now. <br />At least your way, you get to have a clean house!Katiejanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10703557560000189704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3706571093501032722.post-68535210444906913162009-05-05T15:14:00.001-04:002009-05-05T15:14:00.001-04:00I bought this Olive Green pants suit once ... it w...I bought this Olive Green pants suit once ... it was a size too small but it was on sale really cheap and was some famous designer.

But I've also come to realize that this act also clears the way for the new that is waiting in the wings for me to make room and space.

I have to say I like paring down. I love making piles to give away and I love throwing stuff out that I thought I had to keep forever. Like Suki said, out with the old to make room for the new.<br /><br />Today I was cleaning out the room I use for my computer It's torn upside down at the moment because I can't seem to stay focused on a project until it's done. Can you get ADD later in life? If so, I've got it! <br /><br />When there's a big move in front of you, most of your descretion goes out the window with your stuff. It's just easier sometimes to let it go.<br />And "when " I lose the weight I will deserve to buy a whole new wardrobe anyway!<br />So before I start whining, let me just say again, great job!!studio lolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15363808478293833466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3706571093501032722.post-2600802428866432102009-05-04T13:04:00.000-04:002009-05-04T13:04:00.000-04:00What an inspiration.

Wow.<br />I too love when I do this...it feels so cleansing, renewing.<br />I felt accomplished just cleaning, scrubbing really, my shower floor and glass doors (with used dryer sheets btw do wonders for soap scum). You have inspired me. It's time for me to attack my closet, drawers, but OH NO, not the art supplies yet. One day, but not yet.<br />I'll never live long enough to use them all, all that fabric. But I wouldn't know how to part with any of it yet, I have just begun.Lynn Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12094038275377357886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3706571093501032722.post-23219494182120468862009-05-04T09:24:00.000-04:002009-05-04T09:24:00.000-04:00Oh, good for you!
