If your friend's house really would be <i>perfect </i>to rent, please, please don't let the boxes daunt you. My coaching specialism - a mixture of coaching and my obsession with interior design and decluttering - is talking folk through their decluttering, coaching them before we start and 'holding their hands' on the phone during the process while we make it fun. I'm good at what I do and it would take less time, effort and pain than you might think. I'll email you. Just consider it before this opportunity disappears, please.

I have moved 5 times in the last 5 1/2 years and it seems that all I do is move my boxes of clutter from one place to another. I never seem to have time to really go through everything and de-junk before circumstances require me to move again. I knew I have had enough when a friend emailed this weekend to tell me that her house is now for rent if we wanted to move there. I actually cried when she brought up the topic, feeling like I could just not move one more time. Her place would be perfect--larger, more storage space, cheaper rent. Yet the thought of moving my still unpacked boxes to one more location was so upsetting. I told my husband that I cannot move until I can go through boxes and do what Janice recommends in this post--figure out what to recycle, what to give away, what to throw away, etc. This is a project I have been working on all summer and I am only about half-way done. I can attest to the Feng Shui quote because I feel trapped somewhat until I can get rid of lurking objects--things I've been carting around since age 23, thinking I might use them some day. And who knows, maybe when I declutter I'll FIND A GRANDBABY like Brenda! :) Congratulations, Brenda! That is wonderful news. I've been having such fun with my new little 4 month old grandson.
