Today's Marie Kondo

[mme_hardy]

I got 5 bags of clothes and shoes out of the bedroom. That's tall kitchen trashbags (12 quarts), mind you. I may yet be able to reenter and use the closet.

I feel like admitting this sort of thing is admitting to being a mess and a hoarder, but progressing away from that is still progress.

I give myself triple points because this morning I had to ward off my mom's buying airplane tickets (from the dementia ward, on her computer) to make a surprise visit to my brother who'll be recovering from cancer surgery. That was a trip and a half.

With that mother-wrangling added on top of it, you would get the gold medal for throwing out one piece of garbage, let alone cleaning out five bags of clutter.

I at long last let go of some sentimental T-shirts. It was good for me.
