Downsizing Frustrations

Took another bag of stuff to the charity thrift store I donate to, then came home and wanted to cry about how small the dent made was. I've been working on downsizing my clutter for literally years, and I just don't feel like it's making an impact. I STILL have more stuff than I want to have.

Five and a half years on Dialysis gave me lot of time to Think - about what I'd done with my life, and what I wanted to do differently if I ever got that Transplant. I realized that I had spent my time and money on Stuff, instead of Experiences, and I wasn't happy about that. I realized my Stuff even limited me to an extent. I couldn't save money on rent by moving to a smaller, less expensive apartment. I realized even moving costs would be more because of how much I owned.I realized I even had ti spend more time cleaning, since I had to 'pre-clean' first - move the stuff off the surface I needed to clean so I could fully clean it.

No, I don't want my Obituary to read "She kept a clean house'. (Thank you to Ann Richards for that comment!)

So WHY am I having suck a hard time getting rid of all my Stuff???
