Well, fortunately we didn't really get cluttered up over Christmas, or at least only minimally so.This is the first year we've decided not to buy Christmas presents for each other because we simply couldn't thing of anything we wanted or needed. And that's hardly a bad thing.
A trip to India and Nepal is possibly on the horizon for next fall, but only if we can manage it financially, and we have to consider the possibility of spending a significant amount of money to repair our leaking roof.
So, now is not the time to let money dribble through our fingers buying unnecessary stuff.
In fact, this January is the time I've decided to start decluttering in earnest again.
This is the picture of the next 25 things: excess Christmas ornaments, a secondary phone we will never use because we already have three of them, and a whole assortment of unused games and software for the computer.
3255 things gone total since I started this blog. Time to start the New Year with some more things gone.

I just took old Christmas ornaments (3 years in a row they didn't get put on the tree)a few strings of lights, and a huge bag of gently used toys to the S-A today!
I always feel like I should take the toys to a consignment shop first, but I just decided that this was easier, and let them go.
PS this site is an inspiration to my decluttering efforts!
2 more boxes of goodies sent off to the S-A!!!!
AND I sent a huge bag of kids books to my sister's kids
AND I gave my older (fully functional) printer scanner copier to a family that's new to town!
It feels good to be gone
Hurray Pol!
We are in this decluttering thing together! :)
