Decluttering: It's time to let go!
I grew up in a home where clutter was a constant. Although, there were areas of clutter and areas that were clutter free. Both of my parents grew up poor (my mother the oldest of 12 children and my father the youngest of 6). Both grew up on farms and in homes that were sparse with personal possessions and "the finer things of life." My parents had good work ethics, and they expected their children to do chores and take care of the things we had. My dad often bought the latest tech. I grew up with a Commodore 64 computer and an Atari. We had a VCR early (the heavy kind that you could use as a weapon in a home invasion lol). My mom collected things (probably because she rarely was allowed to keep anything as a child and had to pass down clothes, toys etc to her younger siblings). I would say we were rural middle class. Because they grew up with little, both my parents gave my sister and I many things. Materialism was part of life and letting go of "stuff" was not real...
