I spent Saturday tidying up again. My boy actually also
spontaneously decided to go through his own wardrobe so I was stoked about
that. We filled up a few boxes with stuff to donate which he will drop off
there this Friday (they were closed over the weekend). We also brought a car
load of junk to the recycling depot. We had lots of cardboard and paper to
toss.
I will try and keep doing the recycling thing, at least for
paper and glass. The depot is quite close to where I work so really no excuse.
So the bedroom is completely finished, or at least the first
sweep. I might go back and toss some more stuff in a few weeks’ time depending
on how this minimalist thing takes hold. An added plus, now that everything is
so clear and has its place I’ve been keeping it that way. It’s quick to fold
away some cloths or make the bed now that there’s not so much stuff around.
Sunday was more relaxed and we went to the movies last
night. The cinema is at the water front, inside a late night shopping mall.
Walking from the parking lot to the cinema was a bit rough. It was hard not to
look at the store windows and all the pretty cloths! My boy did not help. He’s
finding this all a bit amusing now and was teasing me about things he saw in
the windows. Mrgh! I will need to avoid the shops for a bit. Not going out and
buying new stuff will be the hardest part of this challenge.
