We have no kids and have not put up a tree in over 10 years. I am spending this afternoon getting rid of a lot (not all) of the excess Xmas decorations. If I cannot remember who gave it to me and I do not love it, out it goes.
Some of this stuff was just to fill the tree or was made by mom-in-law. She will never notice so I dont need to keep it for her or hubby. So far one big tote box full is decluttered and I have more to go. Good thing I checked because there was some small amount of damage.
Since hubby has been gone, I have decluttered and organized all our DVDs, sorted a car full of stuff for the trift store, cleaned the desk out, cleaned the linen closet out, and sorted a 4 drawer lineal file cabinet that was so full you could not put anything else in it. Still have a little to do there but now I know where most everyting is located. Oh, and filed or tossed 2 years worth of paper caused by no one wanting to file. Also sorted those pesky breeding plastic containers and lids.
I feel good.:)
