Hello everyone! Hope you’re alright. I’m looking forward to my trip to the Philippines in three weeks’ time. Great to be seeing my mother again and we have a lot of things planned for this visit. We are going to Bacolod, a province in the south of the Philippines, will see “Phantom of the Opera” and stay in a posh hotel, will go to Hidden Valley which is a natural spring resort and lots and lots of bonding together with her and the rest of the family and friends.
Last weekend, we started tidying up KonMarie style. We put all our clothes in a big pile and sorted them out one by one. Only the ones that spark joy stay. The rest were given away or recycled. We had a lot of breaks while we were doing it, but we managed it. Most of them didn’t fit us anymore so they were given away. We put them in a big box to be sent to the Philippines for the needy. That was a big smile!
Another smile is meeting some friends for brunch and coffee. It was nice to see them again, we talked, laughed and had a great time.
Have a great week everyone!

I keep thinking I’ll lose weight and get back into those clothes I keep. It would make my closet easier to use if I just let them go.

I need to organize like that and get rid of clothes and other stuff that is good but I’ll never use.
