Success!

My living room is now free of boxes. I have successfully purged my space the multiple cardboard boxes full of the crap treasures I'd acquired over the past few years. 

Hand print I made when I was seven? Dumpster.

Every greeting card I'd received and bothered saving over the last twenty years? Recycle bin.

Twenty volume history of America published in 1963? Now available for purchase at the Seattle Goodwill.

More picture frames than I can count? Also at the Goodwill, along with three other boxes full of books and other miscellaneous junk. 

I highly recommend purging your space as a means of improving your mental health.
