Kinda going through that myself but don't have anything to blame it on but my lazyness. I have been making progress and have begun one of my famous clean ups where I get rid of my clutter.<BR/><BR/>What works for me is: I keep what ever I actually use, so I would say your knitting supplies are safe ;) This also would excuse your books not to mention their emotional value.<BR/><BR/>Everything else gets put to trial. It has to be something that I use or have used in the last 6-12 months or have a really big significance. <BR/><BR/>If I haven't used something in a long time then it's time to let it go. No matter why I got it and how much I still like it, unless I will really use it, it's gone.<BR/><BR/>It's hard to let go of stuff but you'll be so happy when it's actually gone and your home is clutter free again. You miss things for a few moments as you throw them away but you forget about them just as easily as you did when you stopped using them.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
