Mandy Nolan’s Soapbox: Keep it Clean

Clutter makes me angry. When I open a cupboard and things fall out I feel emotionally precarious. I am in a constant battle with stuff. In fact, I feel like the older I get, the more stuff I have. The more stuff I have, the more time I have to spend cleaning, arranging and sorting stuff. Most of the stuff I don’t use, but it’s nice stuff. Or it’s stuff I’m emotionally attached to. Or it’s stuff my kids have left at my house because they don’t feel like sorting through it. I work so hard that by the end of the week I’m literally stuffed. Which is ironic because tidying my stuff when I’m stuffed is crucial to maintaining my mental health.
