Getting the decluttering "itch" but don't really need to.

I've found decluttering so satisfying in the past, especially when I had a lot to get rid of. I've come to a place where I don't bring in much, and so I'm in a place of what I've heard called "slow decluttering" which is honestly just called Life.

I'm not looking to become an extreme minimalist, and I'm not at all overwhelmed by my house or surroundings. Cleaning and maintaining is easy. I have hobbies and activities and a social life I enjoy. And yet!

I guess decluttering gives a bit of a rush. What do those who have found their "comfy place" do now?

Maybe I just need to sit with it, but I'd like some thoughts.

Trading my "Smart" air filter for a "dumb" one

Ever since getting a Smart air filter, I've been filled with anxiety about the air quality, which I wasn't even really aware of before! While I learned some interesting things from the data (like that my neighbors' smoke comes through most nights from 8pm to midnight) I just do not need to know hour by hour the air quality for the last 30 days.

We still need a filter, mostly bc of the aforementioned neighbors, but I'm just done checking a dang app, even when I'm not home! Ridiculous!

I ordered an open box air filter that matches the one by the cat box, for filter-replacement simplicity, and I'll sell the anxiety-machine as soon as it comes in.
