This is such a problem for me. I love stuff and my life is cluttered with it. I love my dogs, my woodworking tools, my art supplies, my books, my bike, my motor scooter and the list goes on and on and on.
The trouble is they all clutter my life, we live in a small house and everything is stacked somewhere. Thank goodness it is the dry so much of the equipment is outside, the sun will shine relentlessly until about November, then everything has to be packed up and stowed inside again, out of the relentless rain!
I think my solution is that when we leave here, we need a big workshop for all of my stuff to be stowed tidily, then my life will seem simple even if it isn’t.
I say this because I believe that a cluttered habitat often indicates a cluttered mind. For me, this is true somedays and somedays not!
