I am thinking about spring cleaning this week. Now, before you look at me that way, know that I am not losing my mind. Rather, I am starting with a fresh plate. At least, that is what I feel like.
Why do we wait till March? People used to wait until it warmed up because it was easier to get the dust out of their homes. The wind would blow it out. For others, it’s a time of shaking off the winter blahs and welcoming the warm days of spring and summer.

For me?
It’s clearing out all of the things that really weighed on me in 2009.
The way I see it, I need a totally fresh start. It’s a new year. So, instead of waiting to spring to cut the crap and clear the clutter, I will do it now. Actually, I have already been doing. Reorganizing. Getting rid of things that don’t love me and that I no longer love. Purging my home feels good. The air moves a little better through it, the energy is charged and positive.
It makes me happy.
