Simplify, simplify,

The Purge:
Be it things of the past, present, it's a cleansing. Material or emotional. Trying to become the minimalist that I really am.

To give it to someone else who needs it more, or to eject it out of your life completely, it's end result is ridding yourself of things that are not as important as you once thought them to be...

For me. I was once told that I have expensive taste.
I see that to be true, only because I can't see wasting money on something that will break the first time I use it. But.. at my own dismay, there are many things that I spend money on that are not worth a damn and I should have got the bargain deal.

I am not a name brand kind of person, mostly due to be the last born and getting hand me downs, but mostly because in the work field. I’ve come to realize that the bigger the brand, the less attention is made to quality and more mind set on quantity.

A few years ago, I made my own promise to myself that for every piece of clothing I donate I will only then replace it. (unless it was a special occasion) but I still ended up donating after the fact.

For my Purge.
I have taken many items that I once thought important to a friend, that will dispense them to the less fortunate.

5 - new tee shirts
4 – shorts hardly used
smokey colored glassware
6 - Polo shirts
14 – Dress Shirts. I don't need, I don't go out and need not impress anyone
7 – bubble bath soaps bottles
Guitar and ukulele I am still debating about, but I don't need them.
house slippers, cowboy boots, new sneakers, hats
hygiene items that I don't use because I don't have periods anymore
A tea maker and tea because I don't really drink tea unless in the mood
some hanging decorations and other little trinkets
and a new bed that I actually don't like. I prefer firmer. As it's not being used anyway.

Fishing gear, I needed to downsize.

That's just for starters. I have other items that I need to retrieve, that I will need to go through later and decide what I keep and what can be someone else treasures
