upon preparing my house for the annual holiday festivities last night i realized, this is a perfect time to purge and organize. not only do you get unwanted clutter out of your place but it gives you the opportunity to donate the stuff to people who could benefit from its use. i pulled out shoes, sweaters and pants that i never wear anymore (read: have become a little too plump for) that could really help someone out and made things look neater and tidier in the process!
