Purging

Personal

July 27, 2012

Okay, you guys. It’s time for yet another confession…I LOVE purging!

YES.

I hate clutter with a passion and have a fear of one day waking up in a home that looks like it belongs to a hoarder. We’ve also only ever lived together in apartments so space is at a premium. So every so often…I purge the crap out of our apartment.

Wait, what did you think I meant by purging??

When I’m on a purging binge, I just go through every room (including bathrooms) and look for things we’re not using and don’t intend to ever use. We donate them if they’re in good condition, but if they’re not, we dump them…in the dumpster. We’re moving to a new place in three weeks, so lately the purging has gone to the extreme. I’m talking bags and bags of stuff being sent to Goodwill and then bags and bags of things hitting the dumpster.

Puns aside ( so sorry for my immature/cheesy humor)  I think I have figured out why I love purging so much….I like the sense of getting rid of old things and starting freshwith a clean space. I love opening up our home and just having room to breathe.

    I’ve started purging a little but I have the hardest time actually getting it out of my house & donating it/dumping it. I always get boxes and bags of stuff to get rid of then they sit in my car.. or my moms house.. until I decide I’ve missed the stuff & take it back. #fail

  2. i’m a hoarder. i blame it on my affinity for tetris. i like making things fit. haha

    I couldn’t purge things. I have a problem. I need to learn to do that so I can move on. I guess I like to hold on to things because of the memories they brings.
