I got to a breaking point last year and started looking for short cut ways to keep the casa picked up. Turns out my answer was “declutter” it was like a miracle. I grabbed some black trash bags and some boxes and went through the house room by room getting rid of all the trash and junk - then I had to get real and get rid of all the extra stuff I was holding onto all the “just in case or maybe someone will need it stuff”. It was an amazing 🤩 feeling honestly I couldn’t wait to get up and tackle the next room every day. After I got all the extra stuff out of my house then I was able to set up organizing systems that worked for me and my family- it was a joy at that point bc I knew it was gonna work this time!! I looked into a lot of “minimal living and declutter videos on YouTube . I am by no means a minimalist but they have so many great ideas and inspiration. They help you understand that you don’t actually need all the stuff we keep. And there is an emotional/mental price to pay along with the price of physically having to manage it as well. The psychology of it all is fascinating. I recommend Cass the Clutterbug and Minimal Mom on YouTube. I go through periodically now and declutter here and there stuff that’s built up but it’s so much easier now and my house stays picked up!! But when there is a mess it’s so easy to clean up bc everything has a home that it fits neatly in. God Bless 🙏
