I so look forward to the month of January, I feel as though January is timeless! Truth being that it is more of a deception of being timeless coming just after such a busy season of festivities and social events. After I put the Christmas decor away, I feel the need to continue the purge and want to move into other areas of my house to see what I can pass on to a charity or throw away. I believe the mind set is that living in a near empty house will bring me calm and peace with little to have to deal with. I know I'm not alone in this thought as winter decor magazines tend to show rooms that are simple, clean, and sparse. While dreamy, the reality is they are not all that practical! But I do seem to gain a great sense of accomplishment for trying and if peace and calm does not come of it, at least the charities have something to gain!
