Where do I start? I have problems giving away things…my kids artwork or anything I deem “sentimental.” But my biggest problem is cookbooks! I can’t seem to weed any of them out. My friends make fun of me:.( I need help!

Oh goodness Terri, I can relate! I love my cookbooks too (and I’m sentimental about EVERYTHING!)
Sounds like you need this book as much as me! 🙂

Thank you for posting this book. I’m very curious about the contents.
Here’s an irony! I’ve worked really hard at saying no, and now I have extra time on my hands. Time to reconnect with my Creator to see what his agenda is for me!

Happy Summer to you JoDee! My goal is to be where you are! Best of luck to you as you re-connect and find out what God’s will is for you in this current season of your life!
I do feel overwhelmed with social media, I subscribe to many sites and simply cannot keep up it. The technology is getting out of control.
Forgot, I live in Canada.

I SO relate to that Marjorie! Information overload is a huge challenge for me too!
Could you please delete my entries, I just won this book. Thanks.
I have to be vigilant about prioritizing. Occasionally my to-do list becomes too much.

It’s SO easy to go overboard with those lists!
Best of luck to you Betty!
This looks like a great book. Thanks for sharing it with all of us! I’m stopping over from the Sits Girls!
I’m basically the kind of person that has lists to keep track of all my lists… maybe slightly going overboard 🙂
My friend recommended this book to me, she said it is very inspiring, just what I need. Thank you!
Visiting from LMM. Sounds like a good book. It’s so easy for life to get over-complicated at times. There is definitely joy in less.
Just what I was forced to do over the weekend and yes, it feels pretty good. Too bad those nice empty spaces will probably fill up soon.

I haven’t read a Chicken Soup book in ages but I used to love them. This looks one I desperately need so I can declutter once and for all.
Thank you for linking up with us at #HomeMattersParty. We would love to have you again next week.
Decluttering can be a challenge. I love books, but have far too many for the space to keep them in, the same with my cookbooks. I also have boxes full of my girls’ artwork that I’m not quite sure what to do with.
