Letting Stuff Go

I had the day off today from my part time Artists-in-Residence job at a local hospital. My mother is visiting and she is keeping me company as I straighten the bookshelves. I'm doing a fair amount of decluttering lately and it feels so freeing! It seems like a very necessary step in my new life. Less to be distracted by, less to weigh me down. Keeping only the useful and truly sentimental things. And I have hoarder tendencies. This is good for me.
There is now a stack of give-a-way books, along with a stack to sell, and a stack to read again soon. I hope to eventually go through every shelf, every drawer, every nook and cranny, only keeping the things I really love.
Are you doing the same? Seems like so many of us are. This might be helpful to you--I downloaded the Bookscouter app onto my phone. Have you tried it? According to the app I will be getting some cash for the "to sell" stack. Perfect for a small day trip with my daughter.
