Junk out of the Trunk

Tuesday 19th April 2011

Today was a very theraputic day for me!  Thanks to the God awful weather we didn't get to go for our pre breakfast walk (it also didn't help that I was totally exhausted this morning!). How was it theraputic?

I had a skip delivered today so we could get rid of a lot of our junk to declutter the house.  I had my friend's kids here along with mine and all four of them were awesome helpers in filling up the skip in record time.  The thing that made it theraputic was the I decided to get rid of some of the emotional baggage and inner stresses that we all hold onto (and that I can never seem to let go of) with the physical rubbish that we were throwing out.  I can't believe how much negative crap I had held onto!  No wonder I'm overweight!!  lol.  Isn't it funny that the people you see who seem to have it altogether all the time are the ones that seem to be the total mess inside!!  I have learned to never assume that because someone seems strong and invincible that they are - it's the ones that never say there is a problem that you have to worry about!  My friends who seem the strongest and never complain are the ones carrying the heaviest load!

Anyway enough of my babbling, I am feeling 20kg lighter and have made plenty of mental space to load up the next 10 years of crap!  lol

I am looking forward to a weekend of decluttering and family bonding time.  What other way is there to spend the public holidays!!
