Unpacking more boxes and sorting out random boxes of stuff on our minimalist journey. But when I'm done unpacking and decluttering, life feels simple again. Simple living is intentional and purposeful but we still live among boxes in our house. We have 65(ish) boxes left to unpack and decide what to keep, what to donate, what to sell, what and how to declutter.

Erica, THESE particular decluttering videos - the ones where you unpack boxes, make decisions outloud, then get rid of tons of stuff - are the ones I REALLY enjoy. More of these please!!!

@lucindapick2986 3 года назад

Organizing tip: Once a sheet set is folded, place it inside one of the pillow cases. Then each pillowcase in your linen closet will be a set, ready for use. Love your videos! You're going to be so much better prepared when you move into your next home.

I know, right?! I hope Erica and Andy reported that moving company, because that's just wrong!!! It doesn't matter who's paying them, you or the Navy, it's wrong to use up all that paper and boxes and it also makes the unpacking much more of a chore than it should be.

I love watching your unboxing videos, so satisfying when you empty a few more. Only 2 boxes a day and you would be finished in a month, if you can manage more than 2 you will finish even sooner. Then you will all be able to actually use the space in the basement. Just think all of the items that you are decluttering now have probably made many house moves with you, but they won’t be going with you to your next home - all that stuff will be gone for good, how great is that?! You are doing a great job!

You are doing so great! You are bringing such a blessing to your children. I grew up in a overly stuffed/ hoarder type home and the psychological affect it had on me. Not being able to have friends over. Not able to enjoy some normal childhood activities. I swore when I had my own home I would never be embarrassed to have someone over. I natural personality tends towards minimalism, so proud of you. You are a joy. Remember a home should feel clean enough to be comfortable, and dirty enough to feel the love.

@AZHITW 3 года назад

A hold over from my childhood, my mom's house wasn't a hoarder situation, but for some reason nothing had a home, things would just get put away where ever the last person who used it decided it should go. So when you needed something it was a 2 hour search, and the most notable item always misplaced were the scissors. So now, I have scissors in every drawer in the house, you need scissors open any drawer and there it is. :)

Every time I watch one of your unpacking videos two things occur to me 1. I'm surprised that you still have so many boxes and 2. I can't believe I watch someone unpack for 15 minutes. It seems like it should be so boring😉 However, your expression when you find a treasure is just priceless! Your videos are just so real and in the moment. I love how you are figuring it out as you go. Your patience with your kids is also pretty amazing. I feel like I've found a new friend so just want to say thank you and keep it up!

You remind me of my daughter who has to call me and talk her way through things she is challenged with at the time. It always helps me to listen to her, and to you. I read through all the comments, and I agree--it is delightful to watch the maturity levels you have gone through, and you are looking happy and always have been lovely. It seems to be in your nature to be so patient and loving and caring with your kids--I want to be that kind of Mom when I grow up (It has taken me 70 years already, and 5 children and 14 grandchildren, and I still have a lot to learn and practice!) You are one of my favorite teachers--Thank you! Please keep making videos.

Fantastic tip from an old book, it might have been called superwoman. Put an s, q, etc on the corners of your sheets for quick identification without unfolding the whole thing.

I'm 71 and I feel for you, I don't have any health issues, but age sure slows you down. I'm doing the 15 minute spurts mention by "I am the best." When I don't feel like doing anything I set my timer for 15 minutes and I try to get as much done as I can, timer goes off and it's break time. Three 15 minute spurts of cleaning and decluttering can go a long way to keeping my house tidy. Oh the rest of the time is taken up caring for my physically handicapped and early stage dementia hubby. We do what we have to do no matter our age.

For she sheets I always trifold the matching pillow cases around the sheet set (it’s kind of looks like a sushi roll 🍣) and stack them by size. Queen together, full together, etc. then for things like extras that don’t get used as often, like extra pillow cases, I have some “sheet bags” from the dollar store, I think, to keep all that stuff together and keep it from getting dusty. Works out well. Also I love the ideas of keeping that diaper backpack. It will work great for hikes but also for things like the beach or anytime you will end up with wet clothes, towels, or swimsuits!!

You can transfer your VHS to a more updated technology. I know Walmart does it. We used a different company locally in Massachusetts and we were able to get cassette tapes from childhood (I am 51yo)on a USB. I heard my grandmother's voice for the first time in 30 years. That way you can actually enjoy it instead of just storing it. I was able to share it with multiple family members very easily. I was happy I did it. I also mark thumbs up before watching. Have not seen a video yet that I did not enjoy.

Solid decision on the bag question! You're doing awesome. Way better than me. Personally, I LOVE bags. Like seriously, I have a problem. Just with travel bags though. For some reason, I truly believe that I need "just the right type of bag" for any trip. So, I have a managed to accumulate quite a wide variety. I even have multiples of the SAME DANG BAG in different colors depending on if I'm packing warm colors or cool colors for a particular trip. It's wild!

Love your videos. Re the diaper bag ... they are normally really hard wearing. My eldest uses my old diaper bag as his school bag ... it’s in his 4th year of use by him and I had used it for 4 years prior to that. It cost us £75 when I brought it and I plan to use it every way we can until it falls apart ;-) glad you chose to switch it for another bag :-) shopping your own home again ;-)

Thats impressive. We often buy cheaper / thrifted backpacks and usually get 2, maybe 3 years out of them. We see other people with the attitude of new year, new back pack.

you have moved and gotten through more than half of the boxes and at some point back then I commented that I am getting back to my decluttering but I barely have. I have to catch up on cleaning the house this weekend but maybe i´ll declutter a drawer or something to help me get my mind back in the game.
