Emotional and Physical Cleansing

Damian and I started being brutally honest as we literally began really deep cleansing our space. We got rid of a bunch of stuff last night about 10 card board boxes with and we are just scratching the surface. It was hard at first but it did feel good as we did it we have a more usable space and we also discovered something else we also felt better emotionally we hadn't realized how much all our clutter and junk was just suffocating us. We are getting ready for a new phase in our lives a phase where we can cram our stuff into a one bedroom and be comfortable in it. We want to save a two bedroom when we can afford one for a child not as an expensive storage unit. We may get a small tiny 5x5 storage unit just for seasonal stuff such as Christmas and summer stuff like camping gear but that's it. We are realizing that we don't need more stuff we don't use or need on a daily basis we need a clean comfortable inviting living space. We both have anxiety and we weren't realizing that all our clutter and stuff was actually making our anxiety feel worse. The next step will be organization but thankfully I have a good friend who is good at that and she volunteered to help me with that part once we get all the cleaning and throwing away done that is the really hard part.
