Stuff

I've been going through all the closets and cupboards in my home and re-thinking, purging, and organizing.  I think it's my way of relaxing.  It all started with one little thought...."If I had glass fronts on these kitchen cupboards, what dishes would I want to be seen?"  That was the beginning of moving everything around and in doing that, I sorted and purged too.  WOW!  I had no idea I had accumlated so much stuff. 
After I went through all the kitchen cupboards, I went through bedroom closets and linen closets, through file cabinets and desk drawers.  All the while, I just kept asking myself, "Do I use this?"  "Do I need this?" "Is this the most logical place for this?"  "Is there a better way to keep it?" "Could I use this for a different purpose?"  It was kind of a whirlwind cleaning and decluttering spree, but it feels so fresh and nice.
