cleaning up the junk room

Anna and I invested the day assembling some shelves and then cleaning out the junk room at our house... I heard someone say if you haven't worn something in six months, get rid of it... I'm not going quit that far, but I think how much we are willing to throw away and do without is a good guage on our love of stuff... and the more junk you toss out, the more room there is to live... hmmm... there MUST be a principle there somewhere...

there is a principle I think it was just said...
:)
The six months rule is great, I just never know when it passed... :)

So whenever we move... its release... :)

Having gotten some new things in the U.S., I came home and filled two garbage bags full of old clothes from my closet...it's a good rule of thumb; but I go by the "one year" rule.
