Minimize Monday – Why Am I Keeping This? August 20, 2012

Last week I showed you the disaster I call my office. It’s time to begin my newest minimize Monday project. Looking around I knew immediately that the first thing to do was recycle. I get a lot of packages and I keep a lot of boxes. For some reason I seem to think I may need them for packing purposes. Perhaps it’s because I’ve moved fairly often in my lifetime or perhaps it’s thinking I may need them for shipping. Either way, I just don’t need this many and if I do, well, I’ll get more packages.

Oh this is not all I had in my little office. I also had the following. They were everywhere! Behind me, in the closet, behind the rocking chair. Seriously, looking around my home you would think I’m reasonably organized. Then you really look and you might think I am some kind of box hoarder!! Now don’t be laughing at me! It worries me that I have a box addiction!

I know, I know! My basement contained a ton as well but truly I like what arrives in boxes not the boxes themselves.

Anyhow, they are all recycled now and I can begin the real work of decluttering my office! :)

    K. .I’m not laughing or thinking your a box hoarder (fingers crossed behind my back…) Good job letting go of them. I’m like that, too. I always think I’ll need a few, and they add up!

      It’s ok, you may have a chuckle. I was just as shocked as anyone to realize just how many I’d been hanging on to lol

    We also keep all the boxes but now I do not want to move that often as before.
