I just need permission to chuck the things
I’ve got movers coming in less than a month. Full move-out in a little over a month. I feel completely immobilized by the amount of things I no longer want or need but feel the need to find them new homes.
Many things can be rightfully donated, but I have SO MANY craft supplies that might have been lightly used or never used and I cant find anyone to take them. I can try to find a retirement community, or maybe a summer camp that might want the supplies?
Then there are the sheer amount of shopping bags. Paper, plastic, canvas, reusable. These are ALL worthy of a second life, but what do I do with them? Search for an organization that needs bags?
There seems to be so much planning for my items no longer serving me, and it’s completely immobilizing me. I just want to be done with them. I would love to just feel okay with it instead of the guilt that comes with this “failure“. (and yes I know it isn’t a failure but my perfectionist brain gets stuck in very specific loops of how things should be. Doesn’t make it right, but it is what it is)
