It feels great to lighten up. I got rid of all my knick knacks and silk plants. My house looks much neater and cleaner since i don't have to move anything to sweep the dust off with my sleeve.

I saw silk plants at Michaels. And, read the care instructions

. So I didn't get the plants because I pictured all the dust they'd collect as the instructions are way, way more than I can expect of myself in the long term.
I have numerous cans of beans and tomato sauce. I bought them on sale, too, but, I figure, since I get this impulse to buy in quantity every once in a while, canned goods are the least of possible evils - they don't rot, spawning colonies of fruit flies

.
