I live in NYC. Need I say more? I just closed out my storage space for various personal reasons. Did I tell you after all these years I've never lost the key and in two weeks I lost the key to the lock twice? But it was so satisfying to get all of it out of there and to know that I won't have to pay them another dime. The problem is - about half of the stuff is in my apartment now. Today I've been going through it again, and again, and again. I am going to go through some of Scott's baby clothes (three of those boxes worth) and keep about one box worth and give some to a pregnant friend (having twins) and maybe make stuff with the other and the rest to Goodwill.
I have a collection that most of you will think is silly, but I LOVE. You will see that soon. There were crafting supplies I didn't remember I had. The list goes on. That was another reason to get rid of the space. There were unnecessary items in there. I didn't NEED this space. I wanted it. I wanted it for Xmas and summer stuff. I had to get rid of a lot of Christmas items I didn't want to part with, but I can't keep allowing myself to accumulate all of this any longer. For the past few years I have learned to understand my limits, spacewise.
My New Year Goal has been achieved!
It's true what they say; clean out your closet, clean out your life! I just get so overwhelmed with all the STUFF around here that it renders me just about useless, so I almost envy you your lack of space! Thanks for stopping by and keeping in touch, Kim.
