I went to the Fly Lady web site and watched her for a few minutes. Wow, that IS perky lol. I think anything that helps you unlock the tools you already possess is a good thing ultimately.

Going thru my own clutter, the thing that blows my mind now after the fact is, what was I thinking at the time? How did I ever get this much stuff? Gheez, lol.

Even going to the store and looking at the shelves at how many choices we have of the same item is almost disturbing lol. Yikes, how many do we really need? But, that's marketing though.

ITA. This is one thing I'm actually looking forward to when we move to Belize -- less choice. Yes, it will be occasionally frustrating that certain things simply aren't available there, or are much more expensive in the US; but it's gotten to the point here that there is just SO MUCH available to be purchased that I get overloaded and just shut down sometimes. I can't even deal with malls anymore at all. Complete sensory overload. I'm convinced that's why I do most of my shopping online.

Sometimes less really is more.

YES!...
Omg, that is so true. I acutally find comfort in looking at my one certain kind of Terry bike shorts I wear for teaching class. I have 5 pairs of the exact same thing lined up in a row in my closet. Outta clean bike shorts, time to do laundry. That's pretty much the only thinking they require. I rarely go to the mall; it makes my head wanna blow up lol.
