Still packing. Still sorting. Still getting rid of stuff. It's quite nice though. I'm sort of getting rid of the person I'd artificially become. The person that cared about material "stuff" and matching things in the house, and designer label clothing. That's not really me - I've always been the hippy at heart. The one that didn't even own a hairdryer for a long time, let alone designer brand make-up. It's really really nice getting rid of all that stuff I'd accumulated. It's actually quite scary how much I'm getting rid of! I've got 3 whole large sacks full of clothes - all in good condition and some never worn. I've got another sack full of shoes, boots and bags. Ridiculous really. Some would say I've STILL got too many clothes - even after getting rid of all that lot. Ah well.

We're both really looking forward to the new start the new house will bring. I'm waiting for an email of confirmation today from the agent and then I'll start sending out the new address etc. (I don't want to tempt fate by sending it out until we're absolutely certain of it happening.) But fingers crossed this time next week we'll be moving. We both think it's going to make a massive difference - and for me it's my completely new start with a fresh slate. A new beginning with a new focus on what really matters in life rather than the plastic trappings I became part of before. I can't wait.
