Ever noticed that your older family members are hoarders?
There is no magic potion, except to organize, sort, and clean every six months.
1. Make a to-do list of every room in the house, and include the garbage, shed, and basement. Every six months sort through things; feels like xmas every time since you don't remember what you own anyway. If you knew everything you owned it would blow your mind.
2. If you lost weight, get rid of your "fluffy" clothes - donate them to freecycle, Goodwill, neighbors, garage sale, whatever; just say bye bye. If you never worn the item, get rid of it.
3. If you haven't used the item in a year, get rid of it. Give it to someone who may be looking for one.
4. Check the expiration dates, the item may be too old to consume.
5. Own several of the same item, keep one or two and donate the others.
6. Go through your shoes; any too tight, too loose, ugly, or plain suck, get rid of them.
Trust me, it is great fun giving away items that other people need.
