Buried Alive (not really - but that's how it feels)

  Several years ago, a friend introduced me to the Minimalists. Their story and their process is absolutely fascinating and everything they say makes sense.   I started purging.   Then I kind of hit a wall with that – got distracted and lazy.   Then came Marie Kondo – more purging.   Had a pretty decent streak going for a while.   Last summer, Goodwill got SO much stuff from us. The friend helped IMMENSELY with this process!!  Then life happened.  Then Covid happened.  Now I find I have so, so, so much stuff.   Now, to be fair, I have accumulated a lot of craft supplies, BUT I actually USE those – so I am not including them (other than needing better storage solutions for them).   What I am including is the full cabinets and drawers that never get opened – the stuff never gets used.   I’m including under the sinks, in the closets, and (EEEK) the basement.   SO MUCH STUFF.  I want to sell things, purge thing...
