A few days ago, I wrote a post about minimalism and mentioned a guy named Fumio Sasaki, and the other day I watched a channel 4 documentary called Life Stripped Bare.  I’m now feeling inspired to begin decluttering my life and move more toward the minimalist spectrum of things.  I won’t be getting down to 150 items like Fumio Sasaki, but I am determined to get rid of as much stuff as I can…stuff that’s just sitting around the house collecting dust.  So to keep me motivated I’ve decided to turn this into an open project and document my decluttering efforts as I go along.  This is the first in the series of ‘Things I got rid of.’
